We remain deeply concerned by Hamas' attempts to rearm and its efforts to rebuild infrastructure, including the tunnel network in Gaza. We are clear that Hamas and other militant groups in Gaza must permanently end rocket fire and other attacks against Israel. Any Hamas rearmament undermines efforts to improve the situation in Gaza and harms prospects for peace and stability in the Middle East.</p> answering member constituency Bournemouth East answering member printed Mr Tobias Ellwood question first answered 21/01/2016 14:44:08 answering member 1487 label Biography information for Mr Tobias Ellwood
