Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:
To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, whether his Department holds any information on the potential use of cluster munitions in Lebanon since September 2024.
The UK is a State Party to the Convention on Cluster Munitions, which prohibits their production, stockpiling, transfer, and use.
We are concerned by reports of the use of cluster munitions by the Israeli Defence Forces.
We continue to urge all actors to refrain from using such munitions and to adhere to international humanitarian law.
