The leaders of Britain, France and Canada have warned that their countries will take action if Israel does not stop a renewed military offensive in Gaza and lift aid restrictions, Reuters reports.

“The Israeli government’s denial of essential humanitarian assistance to the civilian population is unacceptable and risks breaching International Humanitarian Law,” a joint statement released by the British government said.

“We oppose any attempt to expand settlements in the West Bank … We will not hesitate to take further action, including targeted sanctions.”
