Britain will stop exporting some military equipment to Israel after concluding there is a risk they may be used in breach of humanitarian law in Gaza.

Around 30 licenses for the export of arms to Israel out of 350 will be affected, David Lammy has announced.

Aircraft, drones, helicopters and ground targeting equipment will be withheld.

The decision was made under the strategic export licensing criteria, which bans the export of items if there is a risk of them being used for violation of humanitarian law in the areas of humanitarian provision and access, treatment of detainees, and prosecution of military campaigns.

Mr Lammy asked his department’s lawyers to review advice on exports to Israel the day he became foreign secretary.

Since 1948 it has been Israeli oppression versus Palestinian resistance.
We have watched it all in our lives.
It started with the Naqba.

If they said British made equipment could be used to commit serious violations of international law, why is Britain making it at all? Maybe the government should place an embargo on Britain itself for making such equipment? If it's that dangerous, where does Britain intend to use it?

Yes to Judaism.
No to zionism.
Judaism is a religion.
Zionism is a political movement.
