UK Parliament agrees to debate investigation into Government's Involvement in Gaza Genocide
London – SABA:
The British Parliament on Wednesday approved the discussion of the 'Gaza Bill,' which seeks to open an investigation into the British government's potential involvement in the genocide committed by the Israeli enemy against the Palestinian people in the Gaza Strip.
Former Labour Party leader and MP Jeremy Corbyn submitted the bill today, according to the 'Sanad' news agency.
Corbyn stated in media remarks: 'Today I am presenting a bill to investigate Britain's involvement in Israel's military operations in the Gaza Strip.'
He added: 'MPs must decide whether they will support an investigation into Britain's role in genocide, or whether they will obstruct it.'
UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer had earlier indicated that Britain is working with what he described as 'allies' to ensure the delivery of humanitarian aid to the Gaza Strip.
In press statements on Wednesday, Starmer said, 'The situation in Gaza is horrific, and aid must be allowed in.'
He expressed opposition to the Israeli assault on Gaza and the West Bank, stating: 'We oppose the Israeli military operation in Gaza and settler violence in the West Bank. What Israel is doing is intolerable.'
With U.S. and European support, the Israeli occupation army has, since October 7, 2023, been committing acts of genocide in the Gaza Strip, resulting in the martyrdom of 54,607 Palestinians, most of them women and children, and the injury of 125,341 others, according to non-final figures, as thousands remain trapped under rubble or in streets unreachable by rescue teams.

IAEA: Negotiations between Iran, US very serious
London - Saba: Director General of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Rafael Grossi has expressed optimism about the indirect nuclear negotiations between Iran and the United States in an interview with a British newspaper on Friday. In an interview with the Financial Times, Grossi described these talks as "very serious." The IAEA Director General said: "I have seen situations where countries had to be persuaded to want to negotiate. This is not the case here. The talks are very serious." The newspaper quoted Grossi in part of its report on the interview, stating that Iran's nuclear capabilities cannot be eliminated with a limited attack. The newspaper then quoted Grossi as saying: "The most sensitive things are half a mile underground—I've been there several times. To get to them, you have to go down a winding tunnel, down, down, down." So far, five rounds of indirect negotiations have taken place between Iran and the United States, mediated by Oman. The main disagreement in these talks revolves around uranium enrichment and the lifting of sanctions. The United States is demanding a complete halt to enrichment and even the dismantling of Iran's non-military nuclear program, while Iran considers enrichment for peaceful purposes a right under the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) and stipulates the full lifting of sanctions as a precondition for an agreement, according to Tasnim News Agency. Iran maintains that its nuclear program is peaceful and is demanding guarantees that the United States will abide by the agreement. Whatsapp Telegram Email Print more of (International)
