The prime minister was joined by a number of UK politicians, including Sir Kier Starmer, who condemned the attack - the deadliest in Israeli territory in years.
Rishi Sunak has said Israel has an 'absolute right to defend itself' after thousands of rockets were fired from the Gaza Strip in a surprise attack by the Hamas militant group. The prime minister was joined by a number of UK politicians in condemning the attack, which began in the early hours of Saturday. At least 100 Israelis have been killed in the attacks by Hamas, prompting the country's prime minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, to declare that his country was 'at war'.
' In response, security minister Tom Tugendhat made reference to Mr Corbyn's previous description of Hamas as 'friends' - a comment he later said he regretted. 'Your 'friends' Hamas are murdering children and taking civilian hostages,' Mr Tugendhat posted. 'Haven't you said enough?' Mr Netanyahu said Hamas would 'pay a price that it hasn't known until now' as he ordered up a call of reservists.
