A parliamentary debate will focus on how Britain can help prevent further conflict in Gaza.

The Westminster Hall session will take place on Wednesday and will be led by Labour Friends of Israel vice-chairman Michael McCann MP.

LFI has produced a briefing pack for MPs highlighting action being taken by Hamas to re-arm, including the rebuilding of tunnels destroyed by Israel last summer, and the continued recruitment of young fighters.

Jennifer Gerber, LFI director, said the organisation wanted the 90-minute debate to also promote Britain's ability to push for international action which would aid Palestinians and Israelis.
