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.

	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 30/01/2023 answer text <p>We are unable to comment on individual cases. We are aware that there are British nationals, including children, in IDP (Internally Displaced Persons) camps in north east Syria. The FCDO advises against all travel to Syria and there is no consular support available from within Syria, therefore we cannot accurately account for the number of British nationals there.</p><p>The UK Government will seek to facilitate the return of British unaccompanied minors and orphans to the UK where feasible, subject to national security concerns, nationality and identity checks and on a case-by-case basis.</p> answering member printed Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon question first answered 30/01/2023 17:31:14 answering member 4210 label Biography information for Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon

	question text	To ask His Majesty's Government what assessment they have made of how well the agreed arrangements for the export of food from Ukraine are working; and what (1) steps, if any, they are taking, and (2) discussions with partner countries they are having, to address any issues.

	uin	HL4776
	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 30/01/2023 answer text <p>Continued Russian bombing ruins crops and damages transport routes, hindering Ukrainian grain from getting onto world food markets. Despite this, grain exports continue through Ukrainian defiance and international support. The Black Sea Grain Initiative has been a success with over 18 million tonnes of grain exported from Ukrainian ports since August. The UK works closely with the UN and like-minded partners to ensure the continued success and stability of the initiative. We call on all parties to cooperate to ensure that the potential of the initiative is maximised. We have also provided £10 million for equipment to move grain by rail to neighbouring countries.</p> answering member printed Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon question first answered 30/01/2023 11:59:18 answering member 4210 label Biography information for Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon
