<p>We regularly raise our concerns about the situation in Gaza with the Israeli Government
and the Palestinian Authority, pressing them on the need for a long-term strategy
to improve humanitarian and economic conditions, and reduce movement and access restrictions.
I raised Gaza with the Israeli Ambassador to the UK on 30 January, and with the Palestinian
Foreign Minister on 4 February. On 18 March, the EU gave an intervention on the UN
Human Rights Council Commission of Inquiry, in which we expressed our concern about
the high number of Palestinians killed and injured and the use of excessive force
including live fire, and condemned violence and provocations against Israel by Hamas
and other militant groups.</p>
