London Mayor Sadiq Khan opposes the British capital being used to host an international arms fair, citing Israel's military operation in Gaza, the Guardian reported, quoting a spokesperson for the mayor.

"The Mayor has previously written to both the organisers and ExCel to remind them that London is home to thousands of people who have fled conflict and suffered as a result of weapons like those exhibited at this event – and continues to urge them to reconsider hosting the fair in London in the future," the statement read.

The spokesman added that the event was "inappropriate given Israel's ongoing military operation in Gaza."
