British Prime Minister Keir Starmer told Israeli counterpart Benjamin Netanyahu that he was “alarmed to hear about the drone launched towards” his residence earlier Saturday, the UK leader’s office said according to AFP.
“The prime minister said he was alarmed to hear about the drone launched towards Prime Minister Netanyahu’s home this morning,” Starmer’s office said in a summary of the two leaders’ afternoon phone call.
“They discussed the situation in the Middle East following the death of Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar, who the prime minister said was a brutal terrorist and that the world is a better place without him,” it added.
London’s readout of the discussion noted they also talked about “the opportunity presented by Sinwar’s death to halt the fighting and get the hostages out”.
Starmer also “stressed the importance of getting much more aid into Gaza,” it said, echoing similar calls made Friday in the joint statement he made along with the leaders of France, Germany and the US.
