Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, if he will make representations to the UN on the need for an independent verifiable assessment of the number of missiles fired by Hamas into Israel between (a) July 2022 and September 2023, (b) October 2023 and January 2024 and (c) February 2024 and May 2025.

The UK regularly uses - and will continue to use - our seat on the United Nations Security Council and our voice in the UN to condemn Hamas' terror attacks against Israel. The UK has consistently stressed that Hamas can have no place in the future governance of Gaza and should never again threaten Israel's security. Israel already produces data on the number of missiles fired by Hamas into Israel. Israelis and Palestinians must be able to live in peace and security. Hamas must cease all such attacks.
