<p>We urge access into and out of Gaza, in accordance with International Humanitarian
Law, for humanitarian actors, reconstruction materials and those, including Palestinians,
travelling for medical purposes. We are in close contact with UN agencies and key
partners on the ground to assess the situation and will monitor closely. Officials
from our Embassy in Tel Aviv and our Consulate-General in Jerusalem frequently urge
the Israeli and Palestinian authorities to take steps to improve conditions in Gaza,
including easing movement and access restrictions. The wounded and ill in Gaza and
the West Bank should be able to access the urgent medical care they need.</p>
