LONDON, Aug. 8 (Xinhua) — British Prime Minister Keir Starmer on Friday urged Israel to reconsider its misguided escalation of its offensive in the Gaza Strip, warning of more bloodshed and worsening prospects for peace.

In a statement released by 10 Downing Street, the politician said the Israeli government's decision to further escalate the offensive in Gaza "will do nothing to end this conflict or secure the release of the hostages."

According to K. Starmer, the long-term plan is to ensure peace in the region within the framework of the “two states for two peoples” plan and ultimately achieve “a brighter future for Palestinians and Israelis”.

He warned that without good faith participation of both sides in the negotiations, the prospect of realizing the “two states for two peoples” plan disappears, leading to a path of destruction.

Israel's security cabinet has approved a plan to take control of Gaza City, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's office said Friday. -0-
