UK foreign secretary calls for restraint from Israel

James Cleverly says he has asked the Israeli military and government to respect international law and to preserve the lives of civilians in Gaza.

“Despite the incredibly difficult circumstances, I have called for discipline and professionalism and restraint from the Israeli military,” he told leaders at the Cairo Peace Summit.

The UK foreign secretary also noted how this war has been a divisive topic in societies and has also been challenging for him in his personal, professional and political life.

“I suspect that I am not alone. But I still believe in the power of diplomacy and to secure a future where Israelis and Palestinians live in peace,” he said.

“We must ensure peaceful coexistence wins,” he added.
