UK Criticizes Israel for Barring Entry to Two Anti-Israel MPs

The United Kingdom has expressed strong disapproval towards Israel's decision to deny entry to two British Members of Parliament, Abtisam Mohamed and Yuan Yang, known for their critical stance on Israeli policies. The MPs were scheduled to visit the region to engage with Palestinian communities and assess the situation on the ground.

The incident has sparked a diplomatic row, with the UK Foreign Office condemning the move as 'unacceptable' and calling for a reversal of the decision. The barred MPs have voiced their frustration, emphasizing that their visit was intended to foster dialogue and understanding, not to provoke conflict.

Israel's Interior Ministry justified the ban by citing security concerns and the MPs' previous statements against the country. This event has reignited debates about freedom of movement and the right to criticize state actions, especially in politically sensitive areas like the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
