Gaza: Health Services
- Question
-
To ask the Secretary of State for International Development, what steps the Government is taking to help ensure that medical workers in Gaza can perform their humanitarian functions without risk of attack.
- Answer
-
No medical workers anywhere in the world should be at risk of violence, including those assisting Palestinians injured during demonstrations. We regularly raise with the Government of Israel the importance of protecting civilians, including medical personnel, when responding to protests and the importance of adhering to the principles of necessity and proportionality.
