UK’s Cameron worried over Rafah offensive, calls for progress toward ceasefire
British Foreign Minister David Cameron says he is “deeply concerned” about the prospect of an Israeli military operation in the southern Gaza city of Rafah.
In a statement on X, Cameron says fighting must stop immediately so aid can enter and hostages can be freed, followed by “progress towards a sustainable, permanent ceasefire.”
Deeply concerned about the prospect of a military offensive in Rafah – over half of Gaza’s population are sheltering in the area.
The priority must be an immediate pause in the fighting to get aid in and hostages out, then progress towards a sustainable, permanent ceasefire.
