Among the calls by Naamod include calls on the government to reverse its decision to defund the United Nations Relief and Works Agency (Unrwa), which supports millions of Palestinian refugees in Gaza, the occupied West Bank and regional countries.

“We’re here today because, even as the UN Security Council has come to the belated conclusion that a ceasefire can’t wait, the UK gov drags its feet in drawing a line in the sand,” Naamod said on X, formerly Twitter.

“In the face of unimaginable catastrophe in Gaza, we demand that our government follows others and restore funding to Unrwa.

“Unrwa is the only hope of reaching civilians desperately in need of life-saving aid. Every day the Foreign Office delays, it allows famine to continue.”
