British government lawyers say Israel is bound by Geneva conventions to give ICRC access to Palestinian prisoners.

They say it cannot justify its refusal to do so by pointing to Hamas 's treatment of Israeli hostages.

UK lawyers also clashed with Israel by insisting that Unrwa , the UN ’s Palestinian relief agency, should be regarded as a neutral and impartial body.

Israel has mounted a total blockade of aid into Gaza since 2 March , leading to mounting reports of desperation.
