Abstract

The UK's support for Israel is not unconditional, according to Foreign Secretary David Cameron. He emphasized the expectation that Israel, as a democracy, should adhere to international humanitarian law. Both Cameron and Prime Minister Rishi Sunak have taken a tougher stance towards Israel recently, leading to pressure to halt the sale of British arms to the country. The opposition Labour Party has called for the government to publish legal advice regarding Israel's conduct. In response to the recent Israeli military strike that killed three British aid workers, the UK has announced increased humanitarian support to Gaza, including the deployment of a Royal Navy ship and £9.7 million in funding.
