UK government sanctions Israeli ministers over comments made on Gaza | World News

Two Israeli ministers have been sanctioned by the UK government, the country’s foreign affairs minister has said.

Gideon Sa’ar condemned the “outrageous” decision – but did not name them.

PA news agency reports they are Itamar Ben-Gvir and Bezalel Smotrich.

Mr Sa’ar said he had discussed the move with Benjamin Netanyahu, Israel’s prime minister, earlier on Tuesday.

“We will hold a special government meeting early next week to decide on our response to this unacceptable decision,” he added.
