Sir Keir Starmer is set to raise the ongoing humanitarian crisis in Gaza during his upcoming meeting with Donald Trump. The British government is working with Jordan to deliver aid to Gaza and is accelerating efforts to evacuate critically ill children for treatment in the United Kingdom.

The current aid distribution system has faced criticism for endangering civilians, with reports of over a thousand deaths as people attempt to access food. Starmer faces mounting pressure to recognize Palestinian statehood, as international and domestic calls for action intensify.
