'Those scenes, those reports are horrifying': UK's Starmer

Britain's Labour Party leader Keir Starmer described the scenes and reports coming from Gaza's southern Rafah as "horrifying," saying he was "shocked" by what he saw following the Israeli attacks on civilian camps on Sunday night.

Starmer, who is gearing up for the July 4 British general election, told reporters that he will push to bring the Israeli military operations in Rafah to a halt if he becomes the UK's prime minister.

When asked about what would he tell Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu if he is elected, Starmer answered: "Stop."

"What makes it worse is that this was a safe zone, with women and children in it, families that had already fled a number of times,” he said.
