Gaza: Humanitarian Situation

Contribution

I thank the Minister for his statement and express solidarity with my hon. Friend the Member for Cowdenbeath and Kirkcaldy (Melanie Ward) on the Front Bench. A little over a year ago, a ceasefire was agreed, and that offered people a glimmer of hope that finally the horrors we have seen over the past few years were coming to an end. Given that 1,600 men, women and children have been killed since that agreement, it is clear that this is a ceasefire in name only. Will the Minister condemn the ongoing violence and urge all parties to come together and finally honour the commitment of a ceasefire and move towards a lasting peace?
