Israeli ministers call for sanctions on Britain over Falkland Islands

Israeli Ministers Itamar Ben Gvir and Bezalel Smotrich have called for Israel to sanction Britain over the Falkland Islands, as the UK government prepares to announce a ban on trade with illegal Israeli settlements in occupied Palestinian territory. Smotrich, Israel's finance minister, called for the expulsion of the British ambassador to Israel and said: "We will not be a trampled doormat of an antisemitic government, in a country conquered by radical Islam, trying to save itself from economic and social decline by attacking Jews and the State of Israel. The British Mandate in the Land of Israel is over."
