British Foreign Minister James Cleverly had to take cover during a visit to southern Israel as air raid sirens sounded, warning of incoming Hamas rocket fire. The video showed Cleverly's group rushing into a building for safety. He arrived to demonstrate the UK's solidarity with Israel after Hamas's attack. A spokesperson said Cleverly would meet attack survivors and leaders to outline the UK's support for Israel's right to self-defense. The incident occurred as Israel bombed Gaza ahead of a potential ground offensive, while Western allies like the UK condemned Hamas's attack.
