Israel’s ambassador to UK rejects two-state solution between Israel and Palestinians – BBC News

Israel’s ambassador to the UK has said the country will not accept a two-state solution after the war in Gaza ends.

The two-state solution is the idea that establishing an independent Palestine alongside Israel would create a way for the two peoples to co-exist peacefully.

Meanwhile, White House National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan is on his way to Israel, where he’s scheduled to hold talks with Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu about a need for more precise strikes against targets in Gaza.

The health ministry in Gaza, which is run by Hamas, says 18,600 people have been killed in the enclave since the start of the war.
