Cameron once again labels Israel an 'occupying power'

UK Foreign Secretary David Cameron met with Israeli War Cabinet member Benny Gantz. Following the meeting, Cameron issued a written statement. 

Cameron stated, 'Palestinians are facing a devastating and growing humanitarian crisis. In my meeting with Israeli Minister Benny Gantz today, we discussed efforts to secure the safe return of hostages and the need for an immediate humanitarian pause to allow life-saving supplies into Gaza.'

I once again pressed Israel to increase the flow of aid. We are still not seeing an improvement on the ground. This must change,' he said.

'IT HAS A LEGAL RESPONSIBILITY'

Calling for an immediate humanitarian pause, Cameron urged for the delivery of humanitarian aid via both land and sea, an increase in capacity, and an expansion of the types of humanitarian aid allowed into Gaza, including materials critical for shelter and infrastructure repair.

Expressing the UK's deep concern regarding a potential offensive on Rafah, Cameron said, 'As the occupying power in Gaza, Israel has a legal responsibility to ensure aid is provided to civilians.'
