British Proposal for Gaza Aid: Cameron Says Israel Considering Opening Port of Ashdod

In an interview in Istanbul, his last stop on the tour, Cameron said that Israel was considering a British proposal to open the port of Ashdod to shipments to Gaza, but that it would “require a lot of pressure” to reach an agreement, according to Reuters.

Cameron told Reuters and a Turkish television station, “Achieving a truce in which we stop the fighting and start looking at how to get aid in and get the hostages out. I think there is a possibility of reaching that.”

He added, “This is what I was talking about during my tour of the region. I think we are making some progress.”
