U.K. Foreign Sec. David Cameron Urges Netanyahu to Agree to "Pause" in Gaza Assault
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

On Wednesday, British Foreign Secretary David Cameron met with Israeli
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Cameron told Sky News he pushed
Netanyahu to accept a pause in the fighting.

David Cameron: "It's time for an immediate pause in the fighting,
because we've got to not only get the aid in, but, crucially, we've got
to get those hostages out. And what I think we can do now is plan for
how you turn that pause into a permanent, sustainable ceasefire without
a return to fighting."

This all comes as the death toll in Gaza has topped 25,700, including
over 11,000 children.
