The Prime Minister’s statement to MPs comes after he committed the Government to publishing an assessment of who was behind the blast.
A deadly blast at a Gaza hospital last week was likely caused by a missile launched from within the region towards Israel, Rishi Sunak has said.
Israel and Hamas both issued competing versions of events regarding the cause of the blast, with the Palestinian militant group blaming an Israeli airstrike. In comments cheered by parliamentarians, he said: “We need to learn the lessons and ensure that in future there is no rush to judgment.” Mr Sunak, who acknowledged that Palestinian people are “suffering terribly”, said that the new funding was “more than doubling our previous support”.
A 22-year-old British dual national serving in the Israeli military was earlier named by his family as one of those killed in the Hamas attack. The Prime Minister and the US president, along with the leaders of France, Germany, Italy and Canada, called for Israel to respect international humanitarian law, demanded the release of the hostages held by Hamas and pushed for aid for Gaza.
