Gaza: Humanitarian Situation
- Question
-
To ask the Deputy Foreign Secretary, what recent assessment has made of the adequacy of designated safe zones in Gaza.
- Answer
-
Ordinary civilians must be safe and able to access food, water and medical care. We have been clear that we would not support a major operation in Rafah unless there is a very clear plan for how to protect people and save lives. We have not seen that plan so, in these circumstances, we would not support a major operation in Rafah.
We continue to press these points with our Israeli counterparts.
