<p>On 11 July our Ambassador in Tel Aviv met with Major General Amos Gilad, Political-Military
Director at the Israeli Ministry of Defence, and raised the need to avoid civilian
casualties, including from air strikes. We have not specifically raised with Israel
damage to the Gazan pumping station, but we continue to work to de-escalate the conflict
and ensure that humanitarian aid reaches Gaza. <br><br>I refer the noble Baroness
to the Statement on Gaza made by the then Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth
Affairs, my right Hon. Friend the Member for Richmond (York) (Mr Hague), which I repeated
in the House of Lords on 14 July, Official Report Column 434.</p>
