The UK is doing all it can to alleviate Palestinian suffering in Gaza. Today we've announced a new humanitarian aid package. This includes vital funding for @UKMed, who have already treated over 500,000 Gazans over the course of the conflict.

The horror in Gaza must end. We're stepping up our humanitarian efforts with new healthcare, food and water for Gazans. We need an immediate ceasefire now, the release of all hostages and a surge in aid.

I am deeply saddened by reports of a Bangladesh Air Force jet that has crashed into a school in Dhaka, with many children affected.   My thoughts are with all those who have suffered, especially the families of the victims and the injured.

We stand united with our European partners behind Ukraine.   Together we are hammering Putin's oil revenues, stranding his beleaguered shadow fleet and blocking billions from his war chest.  Only through maximum economic pressure will we achieve a just and lasting peace.

The suffering of civilians in Gaza has reached new depths. Alongside 25 other partners, the UK message is clear: the war in Gaza must end now. We need an immediate ceasefire, release of all hostages and a full resumption of aid. gov.uk/government/new…

I welcome the deal agreed between the DRC government and AFC/M23 yesterday in Doha. This marks a significant step towards peace in eastern Congo. I am grateful to Qatari mediators, who made this agreement possible.

This is what our work on the international stage is all about — delivering for British people. Tackling migration. Creating jobs. Growing our economy.

Horrified by the violence in Southern Syria. A sustainable ceasefire is vital. I spoke to Syrian Foreign Minister @AsaadHshaibani yesterday as part of UK efforts to urge a peaceful resolution. We want to see the fighting ended, civilians protected and humanitarian access…

I welcome the news that the Government of DRC, through Qatari mediation, have agreed a Declaration of Principles with Alliance Fleuve Congo/M23. This is an important step towards peace.

Deeply concerned by the Israeli Civil Administration’s plan to revive the E1 settlement programme. If implemented, this would critically undermine a future Palestinian state and the path to a two-state solution - crushing the hopes of millions who wish for peace.

The UK and our allies are striking at the heart of Russia's energy sector by lowering the Oil Price Cap. This will directly hit Putin's most critical revenue stream and drain his war chest. We will keep up economic pressure as we stand by Ukraine. gov.uk/government/new…

Ahmad was in a critical condition after an airstrike in Gaza. At a UK-Med field hospital, he's now had life-saving surgery and physiotherapy. With support from UK government funding, @UKMed is delivering vital healthcare to Gazans and has provided over 500,000 consultations.

Russian spies are trying to destabilise Europe, undermine Ukraine’s sovereignty and threaten the safety of British citizens. Today we are exposing this activity and sanctioning those responsible. Protecting the UK from harm is fundamental to this government’s Plan for Change.

Russian military intelligence routinely uses cyber and information operations to sow chaos, division and disorder in Ukraine and across the world. Today, the UK is exposing this activity and sanctioning those responsible ⬇️
