answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 16/03/2023 answer text <p>The UK Government strongly condemns all acts of terrorism and incitement of violence. We have not raised this issue specifically with the Government of Israel, but we regularly make clear that we expect Israel to uphold its obligations as the occupying power under the Geneva convention, including not transferring the protected population from the occupied territory. The Israeli and Palestinian leaders need to work together to find a durable solution to the conflict that prevents terrorism, ends the cycle of violence and delivers a sustainable, and just peace based on a two-state solution.</p> answering member printed Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon question first answered 16/03/2023 17:48:35 answering member 4210 label Biography information for Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon
