Liberal Democrat MP Layla Moran called for an immediate ceasefire in the war.
Liberal Democrat MP Layla Moran said members of her family have escaped Gaza and are now in Bahrain, but are “exhausted and traumatised” after their journey.
She wrote: “It is bittersweet. Sweet because they are safe. Finally. Bitter because they shouldn’t have had to leave and that so many who do want to leave can’t or die trying.She continued: “We know we are lucky. They’re in Manama to be with their immediate family and are grateful to Bahrain for giving them sanctuary.
As reports of famine and lack of hygiene infrastructure began to emerge from Gaza, the MP for Oxford West and Abingdon described the conditions faced by her family. “I am told after pressure that food has been delivered, but they have not seen it, and when this began a week ago, the IDF soldiers ordered these civilians to evacuate against their will.”
