Sir Keir Starmer considering sanctions against Israeli cabinet members
Sir Keir Starmer has said Britain is considering imposing sanctions on Israeli ministers amid mounting pressure on the Tel Aviv government over its actions in Gaza, the West Bank and Lebanon.
It comes one day after the UK imposed fresh sanctions on Israeli settlers in the West Bank, accusing Israel of allowing “impunity to flourish” among extremist settlers.
Hours earlier, foreign secretary Lord Cameron had revealed he had been preparing to sanction Israeli finance minister Bezalel Smotrich and national security minister Itamar Ben-Gvir during his final days in the role before the general election was called.
