Calls for UK to suspend trade with Israel over double-tap hospital attack

Jump to contentAllNewsSportCultureLifestyleA joint investigation by The Independent and Independent Arabia uncovered evidence that an August 2025 Israeli double-tap attack on Gaza's Nasser Medical Complex may constitute war crimes. The strikes killed at least 20 people, including Independent correspondent Mariam Abu Dagga and Reuters cameraman Hussam al-Masri, as journalists and first responders gathered following an initial strike. International law experts concluded that a prosecutor could reasonably find the Israeli military committed war crimes by intentionally targeting civilians and launching a disproportionate attack. The investigation refuted Israeli military claims that a Hamas camera was targeted, confirming that the equipment belonged to Reuters and that civil defence workers were falsely labelled as terrorists. British MPs have urged the UK government to take strong measures, including suspending trade with Israel and expanding sanctions, while demanding accountability through international courts.
