Reports of women and children killed waiting in line for nutritional supplies yesterday in Gaza are horrific. The UK Government calls for an immediate and independent investigation into this incident. Protection for civilians and unhindered access to humanitarian aid is vital.

Civilians in Gaza must be protected from attack and able to access aid without fear. Devastated to hear about the killing of women and children waiting in line for aid yesterday. The UK Government calls for an immediate and independent investigation into this incident.

We condemn the killing of two Palestinians, Seif Mossallat and Mohammed Shalahi, by extremist settlers in Sinjil. This tragedy comes after the attack on Kafr Malik. Extremist settlers face no consequences for their actions. There must be accountability.

Saddened by the passing of former Nigerian President Muhammadu Buhari. He was a defining figure in Nigeria’s modern history and a steadfast partner to the UK. I expressed my condolences to Hon. Yusuf Maitama Tuggar yesterday. My thoughts are with the Nigerian people.

The fight against organised immigration crime is not limited to the English Channel. In Tripoli, Minister Hamish Falconer MP saw how National Crime Agency (NCA) is working tirelessly in the region to dismantle and arrest criminal networks. These criminals don't care about human life and must be stopped.
