Yesterday, alongside other Labour MPs, I met with Palestinian Ambassador Husam Zomlot. Today, the UN commission of inquiry has stated that Israel has committed genocide in Gaza. A military ground offensive has also been launched in Gaza City, which will worsen an already devastating humanitarian situation.
The slaughter of innocent civilians must stop now. Talking with Husam and working with other international partners reinforces the need to secure an immediate and permanent ceasefire & recognition of a Palestinian state
