Streeting demands answers from Herzog as British Green Party leader calls for Israeli president’s arrest during UK visit

LONDON: Senior UK government ministers and MPs have clashed over whether Israel’s actions in Gaza amount to genocide ahead of Israeli President Isaac Herzog’s visit to London this week. Health Secretary Wes Streeting told Times Radio that Herzog “needs to answer the allegations of war crimes, of ethnic cleansing and of genocide that are being leveled at the government of Israel.” Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer will hold talks with Herzog in Downing Street on Wednesday.
