Human Rights group Amnesty International has accused UK Prime Minister and senior opposition Member of Parliament of diminishing the gravity of the Israeli human rights violations in the Gaza Strip.

Iran PressEurope: Israel bombarded residential areas in Gaza overnight including the densely populated Jabalia refugee camp and locations close to Gaza’s Al-Shifa and Al-Quds Hospitals.

Al-Shifa Hospital in northern Gaza is on the brink of “real disaster”, with its fuel possibly running out in the next 48 hours, according to its director.

“By refusing to condemn clear breaches of international law, by not saying clearly that Israel’s restriction of water and food is collective punishment and a war crime, and that Israel’s evacuation order amounts to forcible displacement, UK politicians are diminishing the gravity of Israel’s actions,” Sacha Deshmukh, Amnesty International UK chief executive, said in a statement.

Sunak and Nandy, the shadow cabinet secretary for international development, have faced backlash for refusing to condemn Israel’s total blockade of the Strip during interviews. 219
