London may expel Israeli diplomats over Jerusalem consulate
The deterioration of relations between Britain and Israel is due to the latter's decision to close the British consulate in East Jerusalem, with the United Kingdom threatening to expel 27 Israeli diplomats if the Israeli government does not back down from its decision. This comes amid an Israeli escalation in response to Britain imposing sanctions on West Bank settlements. The Israeli decision includes the closure of the consulate and the withdrawal of diplomatic accreditation from British diplomats within 30 days, along with other measures against British figures. The escalation reflects heightened tensions between the two sides, which could affect the functioning of the British embassy in London, amid internal movements within Britain that support imposing further sanctions on Israel.
