The Palestinian ambassador to the UK, Husan Zumlot, has refused to condemn the Hamas incursion on Israel, saying the Palestinian people have been “occupied, colonised, besieged for so many years” and are “fighting for their lives”. Mr Zumlot described the Gaza Strip as the “biggest open air prison on earth” and said 13 million Palestinians have been subject to “systematic oppression” for more than 100 years.
