UK evacuates nationals from Israel, urges Iran to de-escalate conflict

A Royal Air Force (RAF) flight evacuated 63 British nationals from Israel amid an escalating conflict in West Asia on Monday, as the UK called on Iran to take the off-ramp and come to the negotiating table following American strikes on its nuclear sites. In a statement in the House of Commons, UK Foreign Secretary David Lammy revealed that the flight to transport vulnerable British nationals and their dependents took off from Tel Aviv's Ben Gurion Airport for Cyprus, from where they will board a civilian flight back to Britain. The UK also recommended that British nationals in Qatar shelter in place until further notice following a US security alert for its nationals in the region and the country closing its airspace amid Iran warning of retaliatory strikes targeted at American assets. While the situation in the Middle East remains volatile, we are working around the clock to secure more flights and bring more people home, said Lammy. We can and we must find a negotiated solution.
