💨 Abstract

Britain has paused free trade talks with Israel, summoned its ambassador, and imposed new sanctions on West Bank settlers due to the escalating conflict in Gaza. Prime Minister Keir Starmer and Foreign Minister David Lammy condemned Israel's military offensive and blockade of aid, demanding a ceasefire, increased humanitarian assistance, and an end to settlement expansions. Britain, along with France and Canada, called for lifting restrictions on aid to Gaza.
