Israel’s Prime Minister will reportedly propose the full occupation of Gaza when his security cabinet meets later.
It would fly in the face of international pressure – including from Israel’s allies – which have called for an immediate ceasefire and for the full resumption of aid deliveries. It can’t come soon enough for the millions of Palestinians – many of whom are already starving.
And a warning that there are images of badly malnourished children from the start of this report from our Senior International Correspondent John Irvine.
And Home Secretary Yvette Cooper has described newly released aerial images of Gaza as “devastating,” saying they underscore the urgent need for a ceasefire, humanitarian aid, and a comprehensive plan to address the deepening crisis in the Middle East.
Her comments come after ITV News aired the first independent aerial footage from over Gaza in months, showing the sheer scale of destruction caused by nearly two years of war.
