The UK government is pulling staff and their families out of its consulate in Jerusalem, in a move announced by the Foreign Office under Foreign Secretary Yvette Cooper's predecessor-era diplomacy and reported in connection with Ed Miliband. The withdrawal signals heightened security concerns for British diplomats amid the volatile situation in Israel and the occupied Palestinian territories.
Why now: Rising security risks for Western diplomats in the region amid the Israel-Gaza conflict.
