A Home Office spokesperson said: "We are aware of the complaint made against Border Force staff at Manchester Airport and are investigating these claims.
More than 28,000 Palestinians have been killed, and tens of thousands injured by Israeli strikes since the start of the war, according to Gaza’s Hamas-run health ministry.
