	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 20/11/2018 answer text <p>I raised demolitions with the Israeli Ambassador to the UK on 11 October; in particular urging Israel to reconsider plans to demolish the village of Khan al-Ahmar. Our Ambassador to Israel most recently raised this issue with the Israeli Attorney General on 3 November. We remain gravely concerned by these proposals and will continue to raise our concerns with the Israeli authorities. We also issued a statement on 10 September along with France, Germany, Spain and Italy reiterating our call to the Israeli Government not to go ahead with its plan to demolish the village – including its school – and displace its residents. On 31 July, the Foreign Secretary wrote to Prime Minister Netanyahu alongside the French, German Italian and Spanish Foreign Ministers to demonstrate the international community’s support for the village and urge the Israeli Government to reconsider their decision. We are aware that Israel has postponed the demolition of Khan al-Ahmar, in order to exhaust negotiations for negotiations for evacuation by agreement. We continue to urge the authorities not to go ahead with their plan to demolish the village.</p> answering member constituency North East Bedfordshire answering member printed Alistair Burt question first answered 20/11/2018 16:02:33 answering member 1201 label Biography information for Alistair Burt
