Smoke and explosions rise inside the Gaza Strip, March 17, 2024

MINISTERS have refused to rule out the possibility that Britain had supplied military equipment involved in the bombing of British doctors volunteering in Gaza. 

On January 18, the Israeli military bombed a residential compound housing members of British charity Medical Aid for Palestinians (MAP) and the International Rescue Committee (IRC). 

The air strike took place in the alleged safe zone and four British doctors were injured among other MAP staff.
