Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs, whether he has made representations to the Israeli authorities in the aftermath of the deaths of Saad Riham and Ali Dawabsheh.

I released a statement condemning this horrific attack on the same day that it happened, 31 July. Officials from the British Embassy in Tel Aviv have raised the deaths of the Dawabsheh family with the Israeli authorities, most recently with the Israeli Defence Minister on 10 September. We have called on the Israeli authorities to ensure that those responsible for this crime are brought swiftly to justice and we continue to follow the case closely.
