Gaza’s media office said on Sunday, March 31, that more than 400 people – patients, war-displaced and healthcare staff – have been killed in Israeli attacks during 13-day siege of al-Shifa Hospital.

Throngs of people have rallied in the English capital calling for a truce in Gaza. The march was the latest of mass demonstrations in London against Israel’s war in the enclave.

Chanting slogans, protesters marched from Russell Square to Trafalgar Square as part of what they called “the 11th National March for Palestine”.

Meanwhile, tens of thousands of Israelis have taken to the streets of Tel Aviv denouncing the Netanyahu government and demanding an immediate deal for the release of captives.

The UK government also has reportedly received advice from its own lawyers that Israel breached international humanitarian law in Gaza.

Alicia Kearns, Conservative chair of the House of Commons select committee on foreign affairs, told a drinks reception that London received legal advice that Israel “has broken international humanitarian law but the government has not announced it”, The Observer reported on Saturday, citing a leaked audio recording.

At least 32,705 Palestinians have been killed and 75,190 wounded in Israeli attacks on Gaza since October 7.
