United Kingdom to Withhold Military Equipment from Isreal

The United Kingdom has suspended some export licences for military equipment to Israel, as the war continues to rage between Isreal and Hamas in Palestine.

UK Foreign Secretary, DAVID LAMMY said there is a clear risk that items exported to Israel might be used in “serious violations of international humanitarian law.

Israel’s Defence Minister, YOAV GALLANT says he is “deeply disheartened” by the decision, while Israeli Foreign Minister, ISRAEL KATZ says the development sends a “problematic” message to Hamas.

It comes as protests continue in Israel, including one outside Prime Minister, BENJAMIN NETANYAHU’s residence, aimed at forcing the government to secure a hostage release deal with Hamas.
