We welcome all efforts, including those by Egypt, to restore and maintain the ceasefire in and around Gaza. As the Minister of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs, my honourable friend Mr Browne said in his statement on 29 October, escalation in violence is deeply unhelpful. We continue to call for all sides to exercise restraint and condemn any actions that target innocent civilians.
