Israel tells Britain to close East Jerusalem consulate
Israel informed Britain of the need to close its consulate in East Jerusalem within 30 days, in response to the sanctions announced by Britain, France, and Canada against Israeli settlements. London was given a one-month deadline to cease the operations of the consulate, which represents the United Kingdom in Palestinian affairs in Jerusalem, the West Bank, and Gaza. British Foreign Secretary Ed Miliband described the decision as regrettable and harmful, affirming that security cooperation between the two countries would continue, and rejecting criticisms that considered the move a political step that would not enhance the fight against extremism. This measure comes amid escalating tensions between Israel and European countries over settlement expansion and acts of violence in the West Bank, and it is among the strongest collective actions taken by Western countries against Israel ahead of the upcoming Israeli elections.
