The UK and US have split over their policies in regard to Israel and its war with Hamas, after the government suspended some arms sales to the country.
On Monday, Foreign Secretary David Lammy announced that 30 of 350 arms export licences to Israel would be suspended.
The move marked the UK's first wholesale divergence with the US since the 7 October attacks and came as US officials were reaffirming their support for Israel.
