UK PM Keir Starmer says he is shocked by what he describes as “the horrific and senseless” killing of six captives in Gaza.
“My thoughts are with their loved ones at this awful time,” Starmer said in a post on X. “Hamas must release all the hostages now, and a ceasefire deal must be agreed by all sides immediately to end the suffering.”
Between October 7 and end of May this year, the UK granted more than 100 export licences for the sale of weapons and military equipment to Israel, official figures show.
