British Foreign Secretary David Cameron says he spoke with Israel war cabinet member Benny Gantz earlier today about Israel’s duty to provide aid to Gaza and Britain’s concern at the prospect of a military offensive in Rafah.
“I made clear the steps Israel must take to increase aid into Gaza, and the UK’s deep concern about the prospect of a military offensive in Rafah,” Cameron says. “These are tough but necessary conversations.”
On Tuesday, Cameron said he would tell Gantz that patience was running thin over the “dreadful suffering” in Gaza.
