Israel tells the British consulate in East Jerusalem to shut down and that diplomats assigned there must lose their accreditation within 30 days, according to an Israeli official and sources familiar with the matter.
The reports also say Israel requires other British staff to depart sooner. They state that British representatives assigned to a U.S.-led Gaza coordination mission in Israel, as well as British diplomats based in Ramallah, must leave within seven days. The sources do not describe the stated reasons for the decision in the accounts provided.
Across outlets, the core details are consistent: the consulate closure deadline is 30 days, and two other categories of British diplomatic personnel are given a seven-day departure timeline. The coverage largely repeats the same sourcing and timing information, with no additional allegations or official statements included in the excerpts.
