British Prime Minister Keir Starmer reiterated to President Isaac Herzog his “huge concern” over Gaza and implored Israel to change course during a meeting in London, Starmer’s office says.

A Downing Street spokesperson says Starmer told Herzog that Israel “must stop the manmade famine from worsening further by letting aid in and halting their offensive operations.”

Starmer also told Herzog that the UK and Israel are longstanding allies and that “he will continue his work to secure an enduring peace and a better future for the Israeli and Palestinian people alike,” the spokesperson adds.
