British Prime Minister Kier Starmer posted a condemnation of Hamas' execution of hostages on X today (Sunday), calling the act "barbaric and senseless."

In his post, Starmer said that "I am completely shocked at the horrific and senseless killing of six hostages in Gaza by Hamas. My thoughts are with their loved ones at this awful time.
