UK to Recognize Palestinian State Unless Israel Agrees to Ceasefire

The United Kingdom plans to recognize Palestinian statehood in September unless Israel meets certain conditions, including agreeing to an immediate ceasefire in Gaza. This decision comes amid escalating humanitarian concerns in the region, with reports of severe starvation and a soaring death toll exceeding 60,000. UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer has indicated that the recognition could be imminent if Israel fails to alter its approach. This plan has drawn mixed reactions, with figures like former President Donald Trump criticizing it as rewarding Hamas. Meanwhile, calls for action are growing as multiple MPs and former diplomats urge the government to take a definitive stance.
