UK Prime Minister has slammed Israel's strikes on Lebanon and reaffirmed he will not support US President Donald Trump's Strait of Hormuz blockade. On Monday, Starmer spoke in the House of Commons about the Iran crisis and Israel's ongoing strikes against Hezbollah targets in Lebanon. While speaking, Prime Minister Starmer demanded that Lebanon be "included urgently" in the ceasefire between the US and Iran.
Starmer added that Israel's strikes in Lebanon are "wrong" as the Prime Minister continues to clash with the UK's allies. "Hezbollah must disarm, but I'm equally clear: Israel's strikes are wrong. They are having devastating humanitarian consequences and pushing Lebanon into a crisis. The bombing should stop now," Starmer said.
