Israel May Reportedly Cut Military Cooperation With London If UK Recognizes Palestine
The Israeli government is considering the move as one of the options if the UK continues the process of recognizing Palestine next month, the media report said.
"London needs to be careful because Bibi [Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu] and his ministers have cards they could play too. Israel values its partnership with the UK but recent decisions mean it is coming under pressure and the UK has a lot to lose if Israel’s government decides to take steps in response," a source was quoted as saying by the British newspaper.
On Friday, the Israeli security cabinet approved Prime Minister Netanyahu’s plan to defeat Hamas, with the army preparing to control Gaza City.
The cabinet, by majority vote, adopted five principles to end the war: Hamas disarmament, return of 50 hostages, Gaza Strip demilitarization, Israeli security control, and establishing a government alternative to both Hamas and the Palestinian Authority.
