The UK says it is “alarmed” by Sunday’s “Settlements Bring Security” conference in Jerusalem that called for Israel to reestablish settlements in Gaza.
“The UK’s position is clear: Gaza is occupied Palestinian territory and will be part of the future Palestinian state,” says the Foreign Office in statement.
“Settlements are illegal. No Palestinian should be threatened with forcible displacement or relocation.”
