The British government refuses to issue visas for Palestinian children who could seek treatment in the country but accepts injured Ukrainian minors, a report has shown.

The Middle East Eye (MEE) news and analysis website carried the report on Thursday, citing British doctors and organizations that have been trying unsuccessfully since January to bring five Palestinian children over to the UK for medical treatment.

The children have received the injuries during a genocidal war that the Israeli regime has been waging against the Gaza Strip since last October.
