The targeting of aid workers in any circumstances is totally unacceptable. Gaza remains the deadliest place in the world for humanitarian operations, with over 500 aid workers killed since the start of the conflict. We have been clear that the Government of Israel must comply with its obligations to facilitate humanitarian assistance and ensure that aid workers are able to operate safely.

The UK provided £97.6 million in funding in financial year 2023/24, £127.4 million in FY 2024/25, and £81 million of humanitarian and early recovery funding for Gaza in 2025/26 as part of our overall £116 million programme for Palestine. This funding has supported a range of services, including the provision of more than one million patient consultations across Gaza, sustained food assistance for over 1.4 million people, and improved water, sanitation and hygiene services for more than 620,000 people.

Criteria for 2026 support are still being finalised and will be published in a policy statement in due course.

In 2025, eligible students secured a range of fully funded scholarships to study at UK universities. Standard departure costs, including flights, accommodation and insurance, were met through a combination of scholarship and university funding.

Additionally, Official Development Assistance (ODA) funding may be used to support transport costs associated with the initial journey from Gaza. The proportion of costs met through ODA funding for the 2026 cohort will depend on the number of students travelling.

No separate estimate of costs has been made. Unit costs for visa applications are published at: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/visa-fees-transparency-data.

The number of students supported will depend on operational considerations, and is highly dependent on factors outside the UK government’s control. In 2025, the government supported more than 100 fully funded scholarship students to arrive and study in the UK.

Students come to the UK on standard student visas, which allow them to stay for the duration of their course and a short period afterwards. Any further stay in the UK would be subject to the Immigration Rules.

Building on the support delivered in 2025, the government will continue to work with UK universities and devolved governments to identify eligible students from Gaza and, where eligible under immigration rules, their dependants, to facilitate their departure where possible.

The government will shortly publish a policy statement, and then send operational guidance to universities. We recognise that academic term dates vary across the UK. The approach remains under review in light of the evolving situation, and given the complexity of the situation, timescales remain uncertain, and departure cannot be guaranteed.
