Christian Aid Lebanon Campaign

Christian Aid are campaigning to get the Prime Minister to call for an immediate ceasefire in the Israel-Hizbullah war. They say:
"Civilians are bearing the brunt of the latest crisis in the Middle East. More than 400 Lebanese, 40 Israelis and 80 Palestinians have died since the current violence began. Hundreds of thousands more have lost their homes and had their livelihoods destroyed.

The UK government has failed to use its influence to bring about an immediate ceasefire, an end to hostilities and full compliance with international humanitarian law by all sides."
