The protests in the country against Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu over the continuous deaths in Gaza and the death of Israeli hostages have put him on the back foot. Israel has now announced a reduction in troop numbers from South Gaza. On the other hand, British PM Rishi Sunak has said that the Israel-Hamas conflict should be ‘stopped on humanitarian grounds’. The army has withdrawn more ground troops from the southern Gaza Strip, leaving just one brigade there six months after the start of its offensive, an Israeli military spokesman said on Sunday.
In view of increasing pressure from Washington, the Israeli army is reducing the number of troops in Gaza to improve the humanitarian situation. It did not give details about the reasons for the withdrawal of troops or the numbers involved. Meanwhile, British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak has reiterated his call for the ongoing Israel-Hamas conflict in Gaza to be stopped “on humanitarian grounds for the sake of innocent children.” Britain on Sunday marked six months of the Israel-Hamas conflict by announcing a new package of military and civilian aid to establish a maritime support corridor to Gaza.
Royal Navy will be deployed in the eastern Mediterranean
The Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO) has announced the deployment of a Royal Navy ship to the eastern Mediterranean and has committed £9.7 million to boost aid delivery to those in need. In a statement issued from ’10 Downing Street’, the official residence of the British Prime Minister, Sunak said, “Today marks six months since the terrorist attack of October 7, which was the worst attack in the history of Israel and since the Second World War.” The greatest loss of life was that of the Jews. Six months later, Israeli wounds are still fresh. “Families are still grieving and people are still being held hostage by Hamas,” he said. “After six months of war in Gaza, the number of civilians being killed continues to rise – of hunger, of despair. , the loss of life is occurring on a horrific scale.
Sunak took pity on the children
British PM Rishi Sunak has felt pity after seeing the condition of children in Gaza. He said the children of Gaza need an immediate humanitarian ceasefire, so that a long-term permanent ceasefire can be achieved. This is the quickest way to secure the release of hostages and deliver aid, and to prevent fighting and loss of life and property.” In an article for ‘The Sunday Times’, Foreign Secretary David Cameron said Britain’s support for Israel ‘ ‘No unconditionally’. Three Britons were among seven aid workers killed in Israel’s attack on World Central Kitchen workers delivering aid to Gaza. (Reuters & Language)
