The historic move that will see the UK officially recognise Palestine

United Kingdom Palestine Sir Keir Starmer Hamas

Keir Starmer is set to announce the UK's formal recognition of Palestine on Sunday, citing the deteriorating humanitarian situation in Gaza.
This decision follows earlier conditions set by Starmer for recognition, which ministers believe have not been met due to the worsening situation.
The move is expected to spark a diplomatic row, with the US and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu condemning it as rewarding Hamas.
US congressional leaders and families of hostages have urged the UK and other allies to reconsider, warning it could empower Hamas and undermine peace efforts.
Despite the opposition, other nations including Canada, Australia, and France are also expected to recognise Palestinian statehood in the coming days.
