An Israeli Knesset member, Heidi Moses, writes to the United Nations regarding what she describes as the arbitrary detention of Biafra leader Nnamdi Kanu. In the same campaign, she accuses Britain of hypocrisy over its support for Nigeria’s government against the Biafra movement, which she says is subjected to “horror” or harsh control.
Moses links her criticism of Britain to Britain’s earlier condemnation of Israel’s settlement activity in Jerusalem. She points to British Foreign Secretary Ed Miliband’s comments against Israel’s E1 settlement project, describing such actions as unacceptable and potentially harmful to prospects for a two-state solution. She says this strained relations between Britain and Israel and argues Britain applies double standards.
According to the reporting, Moses also says she facilitated a visit of an IPOB delegation to the Knesset and that parliament members expressed willingness to assist the Biafra cause. The accounts also mention Moses’ remarks that she is seeking to raise international attention amid what she portrays as limited response from the United States regarding Nigeria and Biafra. The outlets largely repeat the same claims, with no additional independent verification cited.
