Liberal Democrat MP Layla Moran has told the Commons one of her family members in Gaza has died.
The Oxford West and Abingdon MP, who claims to be the first MP of Palestinian descent, said it was the “most difficult day” she had had to endure in her parliamentary career.
She has previously shared her worries about her family members trapped in Gaza.
Ms Moran told the Commons: “I wanted to let the House know that today I lost my first family member.
“The reason why this is important, having spoken about how they are in a church in Gaza City and how they didn’t, I am afraid, die of a bomb, instead they died perhaps for lack of food, perhaps for dehydration."
