The UK has been under increasing pressure to reassess its military sales to Israel following an Israeli airstrike that claimed the lives of seven humanitarian workers, including three Britons.
Although he said Israel was “trying to use precision munitions” and was issuing warnings of their assaults, the former prime minister said it was “shattering” to see the casualties.
Following an investigation, Israel referred to the attack as a “grave mistake stemming from a serious failure” and fired two officials.
The UK will carefully examine the conclusions of the first IDF assessment on the event, which was made public on Friday, according to Foreign Secretary Lord David Cameron.
“Willing the military defeat” would be the act of ceasing military assistance for Israel.
