Israel-Gaza Conflict: Arrest WarrantsContribution
There is no moral equivalence between Israel, a democracy, and Hamas and Lebanese Hezbollah, two terrorist organisations. This Government have been clear that Israel has a right to defend itself in accordance with international law. That right is not under question, and the court’s approval of the warrants last week does not change that. Israel is of course a partner across UK priorities, including trade, investment, security, and science and technology. We co-operate across a wide range of issues for our mutual benefit.
