Hamilton met North Sinai governor Major General Khaled Megawer and Red Crescent volunteers in Arish, where local reports said he was due to tour aid facilities. Earlier this year, he visited a hospital and aid-packing centre in Jordan, describing the experience as “life changing” and urging humanitarian organisations to be allowed to reach people in need in Gaza.
