<p>We are concerned by Israel's decision not to extend the mandate for Hebron's international
monitoring mission. The mission has been in Hebron for over 20 years and fulfilled
an important role in reducing tensions in the city between Israeli settlers and Palestinian
communities. Our Ambassador to Israel raised our concerns over this decision with
the Israeli authorities on 29 January. The former Minister for the Middle East discussed
our concerns with the Israeli Ambassador to the UK on 31 January and in a tweet on
2 February.</p>
