The United Nations and its Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) have called for an immediate humanitarian ceasefire in Gaza to facilitate the delivery of essential aid such as food, medicine, water, and shelter to the population in desperate need. Despite substantial obstacles, UNRWA continues working to provide assistance, with the needs on the ground growing by the hour. Concurrently, Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer and shadow foreign secretary David Lammy have criticized Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's rejection of a Palestinian state following the conflict, describing it as unacceptable and emphasizing that a Palestinian state is the only way to achieve a secure settlement. Lammy has also called for a sustainable ceasefire and condemned the Israeli government's actions, while reaffirming Labour's commitment to a two-state solution. The conflict has resulted in over 23,000 deaths and more than 60,000 people wounded and maimed.

Speaking today to @itvnews Sir @Keir_Starmer once again reiterated @UKLabour's historic policy of recognising the State of #Palestine and Labour's commitment to a two state solution. Contrary to #fakenews this has long been Labour's policy. https://t.co/raxNRnXB7v
