The family members of British diplomatic staff in Israel have been “temporarily withdrawn” as Iran and Israel continue to exchange fire, Britain’s foreign ministry says.
Relatives of staff working at the UK embassy in Tel Aviv and consulate in Jerusalem were “temporarily withdrawn as a precautionary measure,” the Foreign Office says, adding that staff at the mission remain.
