Britain Suspends Trade Talks With Israel Over ‘Intolerable’ Military Operations—
The United Kingdom has suspended trade negotiations with Israel and summoned their ambassador over what the Prime Minister called Israel’s “intolerable” military operation in Gaza.
The “level of suffering, innocent children being bombed again, is utterly intolerable”, Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer told the UK Parliament on Tuesday, as he told the speaker: “I want to put on record today that we’re horrified by the escalation from Israel. We repeat out demand for a ceasefire”.
He said: “We repeat our opposition to settlements in the West Bank, and repeat our demand to massively scale up humanitarian assistance into Gaza”.
