The Prime Minister also promised “steadfast and united support” to Israel along with other world leaders.
Rishi Sunak has said he will “stop at nothing” to keep Britain’s Jewish community safe, before promising support for Israel along with other world leaders after the Hamas attacks.
Meanwhile, Home Secretary Suella Braverman wrote to police chiefs to encourage them to step up patrols in areas with large Jewish communities amid concerns they could be subjected to antisemitic abuse. “My first duty is to protect you. We will not tolerate this hate, we will not tolerate this antisemitism.Protesters at a Palestine Solidarity Campaign demonstration near the Israeli embassy
“In recent days, the world has watched in horror as Hamas terrorists massacred families in their homes, slaughtered over 200 young people enjoying a music festival, and kidnapped elderly women, children, and entire families, who are now being held as hostages.” Foreign Secretary James Cleverly said he was “uncomfortable speculating” on the total numbers of British people affected by the violence after it was reported that more than 10 Britons are feared dead or missing.
The US has dispatched an aircraft carrier strike group to the eastern Mediterranean to be ready to assist Israel, and said it will send additional military aid.
