The UK government will keep on selling arms to Israel after reviewing advice from the nation’s lawyers, Foreign Secretary David Cameron said.

“I have now reviewed the most recent advice about the situation in Gaza and Israel’s conduct of their military campaign,” Cameron said at a news conference in Washington alongside US Secretary of State Antony Blinken. “The latest assessment leaves our position on export licenses unchanged. This is consistent with the advice that I and other ministers have received.”
