The confirmation of famine in Gaza City is utterly horrifying and wholly preventable.
The Israeli government’s refusal to allow sufficient aid into Gaza has caused this man-made catastrophe. This is a moral outrage.

The UK condemns the decision by Israel’s Higher Planning Committee today to approve the E1 settlement plan.
If implemented, it would divide a Palestinian state in two, mark a flagrant breach of international law and critically undermine the two-state solution.
The Israeli government must reverse this decision.
The situation in Gaza is appalling and the Israeli government's actions are further jeopardising the two-state solution.
@AnitaAnandMP, @jnbarrot and I discussed the need for an immediate ceasefire, release of all hostages, a flood of aid and a plan to deliver lasting peace.
