<p>The British Government is gravely concerned about continued demolition of Palestinian
property by the Israeli authorities including proposals to demolish the Bedouin village
of Khan al Ahmar. An official from our Embassy to Tel Aviv discused this issue with
the Israeli authorities on 4 April. The Foreign Secretary expressed our concern about
the proposals to demolish Khan al-Ahmar when he met Prime Minister Netanyahu in Israel
on 8 March. I also raised it with the Israeli Ambassador to London on 1 March. On
28 February our Deputy Consul-General to Jerusalem visited Khan al Ahmar along with
EU Heads of Mission, and our Ambassador to Tel Aviv raised our concerns over the proposed
demolition with the Israeli authorities.</p>
