Rishi Sunak said to be increasingly concerned about likely death toll if all there is an all-out attack
British diplomats are working with the US, the United Nations and others to convince the Israeli administation to agree to “pauses” in its bombing raids.
Mr Sunak told MPs: “We have said that the first and most important principle is that Israel has the right to defend itself under international law – our support for that position is absolute and unchanged – but we have also said from the start that we want British nationals to be able to leave Gaza, hostages to be released, and humanitarian aid to get in.
The Prime Minister’s spokesman added: “A wholesale ceasefire would only serve to benefit Hamas. Humanitarian pauses, which are temporary, which are limited in scope, can be an operational tool.”The UK Government has rejected claims by Antonio Guterres, the Secretary-General of the UN, that Israel is guilty of breaching international law with its response to Hamas.
