Lib Dems call on RAF to ‘lead the way’ on Gaza airdrops
EMBARGO: Immediate Release
In response to the news that Israel will allow foreign countries to drop aid into Gaza, Liberal Democrat Spokesperson for International Development Monica Harding MP said:
“The current scale of suffering in Gaza is beyond comprehension, with the entire population at risk from mass starvation. Every moment counts and the RAF must lead the way and deliver air drops into the Strip without delay.
“Let’s be crystal clear, these air drops are only a temporary solution. The UK must redouble our efforts with our international partners to put an end to this humanitarian crisis including urgently securing a total reopening of aid supply routes across Gaza.”
