Speaking in the House of Commons on 7 October 2024

Debate

Anniversary of 7 October Attacks: Middle East

Contribution

The right hon. Member is right to emphasise the impact that this has on children in particular. We have special responsibilities to children in any conflict. The first step to protecting children is to create the conditions for a ceasefire and de-escalate, which is why, working with our allies, we are spending so much time on that de-escalation and finding a route to a ceasefire.
