Gaza: Humanitarian Situation

Contribution

I refer Members to my declaration in the Register of Members’ Financial Interests as a trustee for a humanitarian children’s charity that sends aid to hospitals and families in Gaza at this time. I thank my hon. Friend for his statement. He knows that humanitarian organisations are working tirelessly on the ground to try to save lives. More than 77,000 Palestinians have lost their lives in this abhorrent war, including 17,000 children, yet even after the so-called ceasefire, still more than 1,600 have lost their lives. We know from the reports from the UN and its independent commission that Israel has committed war crimes and genocide against the Palestinian people. What further action will the Government take to protect civilians, including children, in Gaza and to secure a lasting peace?
