UK pledges extra $24 million for Gazans
UK leader Rishi Sunak says Britain is sending an additional £20 million ($24 million) of aid to help civilians in Gaza affected by the war between Israel and Hamas.
“We need a constant stream of aid pouring in, bringing the water, food, medicine and fuel that is so desperately needed,” the British prime minister tells parliament after his trip to the Middle East.
