Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:
To ask Her Majesty’s Government what representations they will make to the government of Israel concerning deaths of and injuries to civilians in Gaza between 7 and 9 July.
This question was answered on 24th July 2014
The Prime Minister, my right hon. Friend the Member for Witney (Mr Cameron), spoke to Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu on 20 July. He urged him to do everything to avoid civilian casualties, to exercise restraint, and to help find ways to bring this situation to an end. I refer the noble Baroness to the Statement on Gaza by the Prime Minister on 21 July 2014, repeated in the House of Lords by the Speaker of the House and Lord Privy Seal (Baroness Stowell), official Report, Columns 979-982.
