<p>While the FCDO has not made any specific recent assessment of the Lions' Den organisation,
we continue to monitor the situation closely and our diplomatic teams in Tel Aviv
and Jerusalem are in constant communication with their hosts. The Foreign Secretary
has made clear that the UK wants to see a de-escalation of tensions in Israel and
the OPTs in his phone calls with both the Israeli Foreign Minister Cohen and Palestinian
Authority Foreign Minister Malki on 7 March, and we continue to encourage all sides
to take action which delivers this. The recent agreement in Aqaba is encouraging in
that regard. The UK Government will continue to do all it can to support a peaceful,
negotiated, two state solution to the conflict, which we believe is in the interest
of both Israelis and Palestinians.</p>
