British Foreign Secretary David Cameron said that his country will warn Israel on Wednesday that its patience is running out with the "horrific suffering" in Gaza, where people are starving to death due to a lack of aid.

Cameron added to the British Parliament that the way Israel, as the occupying authority, deals with the aid provided to Gaza raises questions about compliance with international law.

His statement comes before his meeting today with Israeli war cabinet member Benny Gantz in the British capital, London.

Cameron said: We are facing a situation of horrific suffering in Gaza, and I spoke a few weeks ago about the risk of this turning into a famine, and we are now at that stage. People are dying of hunger, and dying from diseases that could have been prevented, and the aid that went to Gaza Last month it was almost half the amount delivered in January.

During the past weeks, Cameron intensified his calls for a ceasefire.
