British Prime Minister Keir Starmer says that the situation in Gaza is getting “worse by the day” and that it is important to ensure the Palestinian enclave receives more humanitarian aid urgently.
“The situation is intolerable in Gaza, and getting worse by the day,” Starmer tells reporters in Scotland, when asked whether the UK would take any action over the issue.
“Which is why we are working with allies… to be absolutely clear that humanitarian aid needs to get in at speed and at volumes that it is not getting in at the moment, causing absolute devastation,” he adds.
