UK foreign secretary continues to urge Israel not to escalate tensions in wake of Iran’s mass drone attack
The British foreign minister, David Cameron, said it was clear Israel was “making a decision to act” in response to last weekend’s mass Iranian drone and ballistic missile attack. He added he hoped this would be carried out in a way that minimised escalation.
He was speaking on Wednesday after meeting the Israeli president, Isaac Herzog, in Jerusalem, and is probably the first non-Israeli politician to admit some kind of Israeli military reprisal is inevitable.
