The recent denial of entry to British lawmakers Abtisam Mohamed and Yuan Yang by Israel has sparked significant diplomatic tensions. These MPs, part of the governing Labour Party, were visiting for humanitarian purposes in the West Bank but were deemed by Israel as intending to promote anti-Israel sentiment. The situation escalated as Britain's Foreign Secretary David Lammy criticized Israel's actions as unacceptable, stressing that such treatment of parliamentarians is counterproductive to diplomatic relations and dialogue regarding the Israel-Palestine conflict.
"This is no way to treat British parliamentarians," stated David Lammy, emphasizing that such actions are unacceptable and undermine diplomatic relations."
"We are two out of scores of MPs who have spoken out on the Israel-Palestine conflict, urging lawmakers to speak truthfully without fear of targeting," said the MPs.
