Sir Keir Starmer has described the “level of suffering” in Gaza as “utterly intolerable”.

The prime minister told the House of Commons on Tuesday (20 May): "We’re horrified by the escalation from Israel. We repeat our demand for a ceasefire as the only way to free the hostages.

“We repeat our opposition to settlements in the West Bank, and we repeat our demand to massively scale-up humanitarian assistance into Gaza."

Sir Keir united with his French and Canadian counterparts to issue a stark warning to Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu to halt his “egregious” actions in Gaza.
