Oliver Dowden Stands Firm Against Haters
Deputy Prime Minister Oliver Dowden has criticized those who seem to take pleasure in Israel's missteps during the ongoing conflict with Hamas. He emphasized that critics are actively working against Israel's interests.
Support for Israel's 'Legitimate Campaign'
Dowden affirmed the UK's unwavering support for Israel, stating that they are engaged in a justified campaign against Hamas. He acknowledged the challenging circumstances under which Israel is operating.
Cabinet Split Revealed
While Dowden expressed strong support for Israel, Foreign Secretary Lord Cameron cautioned that UK backing for Israel is not unconditional. The recent death of British aid workers in a drone strike has further fueled the debate within the Cabinet.
Continued Arms Supply Amid Controversy
Despite the controversy surrounding Israel's actions and potential breaches of international law, Dowden confirmed that the UK will continue to provide arms to Israel. He emphasized the importance of upholding high standards in arms exports.
Concerns Raised by Opposition
Shadow Foreign Secretary David Lammy raised concerns about possible violations of international law by Israel. However, Foreign Office sources maintain that the Government stands united on the issue.
