\u201cThe U.K. continues to work with international partners to support the Gaza ceasefire to see where the U.K. can best contribute to the peace process,\u201d the spokesperson added.<\/p>\n
The British deputy commander will lead work to decide what further contribution Britain can make, according to defense officials.<\/p>\n
Keir Starmer\u2019s government has been keen to support the implementation of Trump\u2019s 20-point peace plan, which has been tested in the last week by violence carried out on both sides.<\/p>\n
Israel said a Hamas attack killed two soldiers on Sunday. Israel responded with air strikes, which killed dozens of Palestinians.<\/p>\n
US Vice President JD Vance, nonetheless, insisted the agreement was \u201cgoing better than expected\u201d on a visit to Israel, aimed at maintaining momentum towards talks on the second phase of Trump\u2019s plan.<\/p>\n
Keir Starmer has argued that the U.K. can play a key role in efforts to stabilize Gaza, both by contributing to the monitoring process and advising on the decommissioning of Hamas\u2019s weapons, drawing on experience in Northern Ireland.<\/p>\n
There are no plans to send British troops into Gaza, however, and officers are not being sent into a combat zone.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"\u201cThe U.K. continues to work with international partners to support the Gaza ceasefire to see where the U.K.…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":217713,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[140,141,59,57,58,2274,9084,15025,420,151,50,1647,472,56,54,158,55,162],"class_list":["post-217712","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-united-kingdom","tag-defense","tag-donald-trump","tag-gb","tag-great-britain","tag-greatbritain","tag-ireland","tag-israel","tag-jd-vance","tag-keir-starmer","tag-military","tag-news","tag-northern-ireland","tag-stability","tag-uk","tag-united-kingdom","tag-united-states","tag-unitedkingdom","tag-weapons"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/217712","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=217712"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/217712\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/217713"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=217712"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=217712"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=217712"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
