Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:
To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs, what representations he has made to his Israeli counterpart on the demolition of Palestinian homes; and if he will bring the demolitions to the attention of (a) the Security Council and (b) the UN.
I raised our deep concerns over the continued demolitions by Israel of Palestinian homes to the Israeli Ambassador to the UK on 24 July. The day before, our Permanent Representative to the United Nations (UN) had raised the demolitions in the district of Wadi al Hummus at the UN Security Council Open Debate on the Middle East, reiterating our concerns.
