Jeremy Corbyn has pressed Prime Minister Keir Starmer for an independent inquiry into the UK's alleged involvement in Israel's military actions in Gaza, highlighting concerns over breaches of international law. Emphasizing a historical parallel to the 2016 Chilcot Inquiry into the Iraq War, which criticized the UK's previous military decisions, Corbyn asserts that government evasion has left the public uninformed. He plans to collaborate with other MPs for establishing the inquiry, seeking transparency regarding arms licenses and military operations involving British bases.
"In a letter to Keir Starmer, the independent MP warned history is repeating itself and demanded an independent inquiry over beliefs that the government has taken decisions that have implicated officials in the gravest breaches of international law."
"We have repeatedly asked for the truth regarding the role of British military bases. And we have repeatedly requested the publication of legal advice behind the government's (currently unknown) definition of genocide."
