Stop Rafah raid horror
Enough is sufficient in Gaza. The world should inform Benjamin Netanyahu that launching a floor offensive in a Rafah filled with fleeing civilians would create a massacre that damages Israel.
The case for a ceasefire and the discharge of the remaining hostages held by Hamas is overwhelming, with the demise toll in Gaza – put at 28,176 – and the bloodbath of 1,200 Israelis on October 7, each unforgivable crimes.
Israel’s leaders are dropping sympathy and worldwide assist, plus any authorized justification, for the invasion because the demise toll mounts.
The estimated 1.4 million displaced Palestinians in Rafah should not be handled as collateral casualties. Netanyahu could ignore Rishi Sunak, David Cameron or Keir Starmer, however he may hearken to Joe Biden if the US President threatened to chop US navy provides.
The combating should cease now. We want a right away, sustainable ceasefire to save lots of lives.
Time is up
Imagine the ache, nervousness and frustration of greater than 1.5 million sufferers compelled to attend in extra of 12 hours for therapy in A&E departments.
That’s longer than a flight from London to Los Angeles or Johannesburg takes.

We don’t blame hard-pressed nurses, docs and different workers, however a woeful Tory Government that, with cuts and austerity, squeezed the life out of our most valuable public service.
The dire state of the NHS is a significant purpose why many citizens desire a Labour Government.
