Rishi Sunak said on Tuesday that Britain was working with allies at the UN Security Council to forge a "sustainable ceasefire" in Gaza, as MPs heard harrowing evidence of civilian suffering in the ruined Palestinian territory.
The Prime Minister told senior MPs that "active dialogue" at United Nations headquarters in New York was ongoing ahead of a vote on a new ceasefire resolution, with Arab countries hoping the US administration does not repeat its veto of a prior motion.
