LONDON, Sept. 11 (Xinhua) — British Prime Minister Keir Starmer met Israeli President Isaac Herzog at Downing Street on Wednesday. During the meeting, the British prime minister strongly condemned Israel's recent strike on Qatar's Doha, calling it "completely unacceptable," a Downing Street spokesman said.

K. Starmer noted that the strikes were “a flagrant violation of the sovereignty of a key partner” and did not contribute to achieving the peace that “we all desperately want.”

Speaking about the situation in Gaza, the British Prime Minister expressed deep concern and called on the Israeli side to change its course. He stressed that Israel must allow humanitarian aid to enter the enclave and stop its offensive to prevent the worsening of the situation, which he called an “artificial famine.”

Both leaders agreed that hostages kidnapped by Hamas nearly two years ago must be released, and Starmer also expressed his condolences over the deadly attack in Jerusalem on Monday.

The European Union and the United Nations, as well as several European governments including Britain, have hardened their stance this week on Israel's escalating military campaign in the Middle East following Israeli airstrikes in Qatar on Tuesday. –0–
