UK’s Sunak tells Netanyahu he is ‘appalled’ by WCK killings in call
British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak’s office says he spoke to his Israeli counterpart Benjamin Netanyahu in a call and demanded “a thorough and transparent independent investigation” into the deaths of aid workers in Gaza.
“[Sunak] said he was appalled by the killing of aid workers, including three British nationals, in an airstrike in Gaza yesterday and demanded a thorough and transparent independent investigation into what happened,” a Downing Street spokesperson says.
“The prime minister said far too many aid workers and ordinary civilians have lost their lives in Gaza and the situation is increasingly intolerable,” the spokesperson adds.
