Gaza crisis: UK to recognise Palestinian state if Israel fails to act on ceasefire

British Prime Minister Keir Starmer announced the UK might recognise Palestine at the UN in September if Israel doesn't agree to a Gaza ceasefire and commit to a lasting peace. This decision follows mounting international pressure, including France's similar move. Starmer's plan, presented to President Trump, is conditional, urging Israel to halt hostilities and pursue a two-state solution, excluding Hamas.
