Gaza: Humanitarian Aid

Question

To ask His Majesty's Government what assessment they have made of reported deaths of Palestinian individuals while trying to access distribution points for humanitarian aid.

Answer

We are horrified by repeated reports of mass casualty incidents in Gaza, with desperate civilians killed when trying to access aid. The UK calls for urgent investigations to establish what has happened and to ensure accountability. We have been clear that the Government of Israel must allow the full and unhindered resumption of aid into Gaza and facilitate the UN and aid partners to deliver aid safely and with dignity to Gazans wherever they are.
