LONDON: The embassy of Palestine was officially inaugurated in London in a short ceremony on Monday, hailed by its ambassador as a “profound milestone” in British-Palestinian relations. “We gather today to mark a historic moment — the inauguration of the embassy of the State of Palestine to the United Kingdom, with full diplomatic status and privileges,” said ambassador Husam Zomlot in a speech outside what was previously known as the Palestinian Mission to the UK in west London.

The opening comes after the UK's recognition of the State of Palestine in September 2025.
