Burnley MP calls for UK action on Israeli/Palestinian violence

Antony Higginbotham above Burnley AN East Lancashire MP has called on the government to act to reduce violence and tension in Israel and Palestine. Burnley Tory backbencher Antony Higginbotham tackled Middle East minister James Cleverly on the conflict in the House of Commons. This week has seen a dramatic escalation triggering street violence in Israel between Jews and Israeli Arabs, rockets fired at Israel by Hamas from the Gaza strip and air strikes on targets there by Israeli defence forces. The fighting erupted on Monday after weeks of rising Israeli-Palestinian tension in East Jerusalem over Sheikh Jarrah, where Palestinian families face eviction by Jewish settlers, and clashes at a holy site revered by Muslims and Jews.
