UK recognises Palestinian State
The UK has formally recognised Palestine as an independent state. This announced by Prime Minister Keir Starmer.
It comes seven decades after the end of the British mandate in Palestine and the formation of the state of Israel.
Canada and Australia also made their own formal declarations recognising Palestine before a conference of the UN general assembly in New York.
London sees the step as a lever to push for a lasting settlement.
