U.K. defends decision to restrict arms to Israel; Netanyahu calls it shameful
Briefly

British Defense Secretary John Healey defended the decision to suspend arms sales to Israel, emphasizing a legal judgment due to risks of violations of humanitarian law.
Healey reiterated Britain's commitment as a staunch ally of Israel, expressing resolute support in the face of direct attacks against the nation.
Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu condemned the suspension as 'shameful' given the context of hostages and the war with Hamas, asserting Israel's capability to prevail without UK arms.
Criticism came from former prime minister Boris Johnson and Rabbi Ephraim Mirvis, who both expressed disbelief over the UK’s partial suspension of arms licenses.
