The article discusses the current situation in Gaza, where a conflict between Israel and Hamas has been ongoing for several weeks. The Israeli government, led by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, has faced criticism from Western leaders, including UK Labour Party leader Sir Keir Starmer, for its handling of the conflict.
Sir Keir has expressed outrage over the suffering of innocent children in Gaza, while other leaders have condemned Israel’s actions and called for a ceasefire. However, US President Donald Trump has remained relatively silent on the issue.
The article also mentions that Israeli Foreign Minister Gideon Sa’ar made an outlandish claim, suggesting a “direct line” between critics like Sir Keir and the recent killing of two Israeli embassy employees in Washington.
