British Foreign Secretary Ed Miliband has expressed concern over the situation in Gaza, stating that he finds it "horrifying". He claimed that children in Gaza are dying while waiting for medical treatment and that medicines are being blocked from entering the area.

Israel's Foreign Ministry responded to Miliband, accusing him of spreading false information. According to the Ministry, there are no restrictions on bringing medical supplies into Gaza. US Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee also criticized Miliband, suggesting that his comments were motivated by anti-Semitic sentiment.

Miliband, who is Jewish, had described the situation in Gaza as "horrific" after meeting with people who have been to the area. He emphasized the need for the British government to take more decisive action.
