Calls from thousands of CAFOD supporters for the UK government to push for a ceasefire in the conflict in Israel and the occupied Palestinian territory have been shared with the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office.

Responding to the atrocities committed by Hamas with what amounts to a collective punishment of civilians living in the occupied Palestinian territory is leading to unimaginable levels of death and suffering.
