UK suspends trade talks with Israel as Lammy calls Gaza blockade ‘morally wrong’ and ‘unjustifiable’ – as it happened

The UK has taken a firm stance against Israel in light of the humanitarian crisis in Gaza. The country has suspended trade negotiations with Israel, called out Prime Minister Netanyahu for ending the aid blockade, and faced criticism from MPs like Zarah Sultana and Jeremy Corbyn as well as political factions within Labour Party for not taking stronger action on arms exports and humanitarian aid.
