Burnham, who is standing to be the MP for Makerfield in the by-election on 18 June and intends to replace Sir Keir Starmer as British prime minister, was asked about foreign policy an interview with the Guardian on Thursday.
According to the news outlet, Burnham declined to say Israel has committed genocide, explaining: "I cant judge things of that enormity from where I am as mayor of Greater Manchester."
But Burnham added: "I do have concerns about the disproportionate nature of what has happened in terms of the destruction, and there has to be a full process of investigation and accountability."
Israeli forces have killed nearly 73,000 Palestinians since the Hamas attack on 7 October 2023 which killed 1,200 people, with a further 170,000 wounded."

"Hasan Piker on Being Banned from U.K., Traveling to Cuba & Supporting Candidates Critical of Israel
The British government earlier this week barred left-wing political commentators Hasan Piker and Cenk Uygur from entering the U.K. ahead of several speaking events. The Home Office said it was canceling their travel permits because their presence in the U.K. may not be conducive to the public good. Piker and Uygur, who are related, are both outspoken in their criticism of Israel. While the government did not cite a specific reason for the ban, some lawmakers and pro-Israel groups had accused the two of promoting antisemitism, which they reject.
I find what the British government did here to be objectionable. I find it to be disgusting. I also find it to be terrifying, Piker tells Democracy Now! I think its a sign that were headed down a very different dare I say, fascist direction in the Western world.
Piker also discusses his participation in a recent humanitarian mission to Cuba, for which he is reportedly under investigation by the Trump administration, and his support for progressive and antiwar candidates in this years midterm elections. We dont have a lot of time. Fascism is here, Piker says."
