Israel is considering expelling British officials from the International Gaza Support Center, a multinational headquarters established to monitor the US-brokered ceasefire between Israel and Hamas. According to the Financial Times, cited by Middle East Eye, the Israeli government has discussed removing the UK from the center, possibly along with other European officials.

The International Gaza Support Center was set up to coordinate post-war efforts in Gaza. The UK's potential expulsion from the center comes amid ongoing tensions between Israel and the Palestinian territory.

An official involved in a US ceasefire plan for Gaza, Nikolay Mladenov, previously criticized Israel for its attacks on Gaza, warning that the alternative to the US proposal is another war, Associated Press reports.
