UK: Edgware United Synagogue (London) Reported to Charity Commission – for Promoting Illegal Israeli Settlement Property! (17.6.2026)

The ICJP also sent photographs of brochures and leaflets advertising property in illegal settlements from Sunday’s event to London’s Metropolitan Police.

MEE has contacted the Charity Commission for comment.

The Metropolitan Police are not investigating the event, MEE understands.

The government said last week it would “explicitly advise businesses against economic and financial activity in illegal settlements”. 

MEE has attempted to reach the real estate event’s organisers for comment.

The Edgware United Synagogue has also been contacted for comment about the event but has not responded.

Organisers denied last week in comments to Jewish News that the event would feature land for sale in the occupied West Bank, saying: “All exhibitors, without exception, will provide information about properties and projects within the Green Line.

“We believe that these ridiculous allegations are motivated by anti-Israeli and terrorist supporters, seeking only excuses to attack Jews in general and the State of Israel in particular.”

Palestinian: UK, Canada, France & Norway Impose New Sanctions on “Zionist Networks” Supporting Israeli Colonists! (9.6.2026)

For too long, violent settlers have been able to act with near impunity, and settlement expansion and creation of outposts continue with the support and facilitation of the Government of Israel. In some cases, settler violence takes place under the protection of Israel’s security forces. We continue to urge the Government of Israel to take action to ensure meaningful accountability for violence in the West Bank. The Government of Israel should ensure every attack is swiftly and thoroughly investigated, take action against the outposts and organizations that allow violence to flourish, and stop the incitement of violence. We believe that peace and security for both Israelis and Palestinians can only be achieved through the implementation of the two-state solution. Together, we will continue to work towards this goal.

UK: “Israeli Militias Intimidated Us During Holy Land Visit” – States Archbishop of York! (26.12.2025)

“It was sobering to see this wall for real on my visit to the Holy Land, and we were stopped at various checkpoints and intimidated by local Israeli militias who told us that we couldn’t visit Palestinian families in the occupied West Bank.

“But this Christmas morning, as well as thinking about the walls that divide and separate the Holy Land, I’m also thinking of all the walls and barriers we erect across the whole of the world and, perhaps, most alarming of all, the ones we build around ourselves and construct in our hearts, and of how our fearful shielding of ourselves from strangers.

“The strangers we encounter in the homeless on our streets, refugees seeking asylum, young people robbed of opportunity and growing up without hope for the future, means that we are in danger of even failing to welcome Christ when he comes.”

Palestinian Prisoners Released from Zionist Torture!

The Hague: ICJ Rules “Israel Obliged to Allow Gaza Aid Passage” & Other News! (23.10.2025)

UN Population Fund Deputy Executive Director Andrew Saberton, who just returned from Gaza, told reporters that the agency was able to bring in some assistance last week through the Kerem Shalom/Karem Abu Salem crossing.

“We have been distributing medical supplies and equipment, including incubators, delivery beds and fetal monitoring machines, that were prepositioned inside Gaza, to hospitals,” he said. “But the trickle of aid being allowed to enter Gaza after the ceasefire is nowhere near enough.”

Inside Gaza on Tuesday, out of 10 humanitarian missions coordinated with the Israeli authorities, six were facilitated, including the collection of water tanks, hygiene kits and fuel from the crossings into Gaza, OCHA said.

Palestine: Israeli Fascist – “Itamar Ben Gvir” – Remains “On Message” Despite ICC Arrest Warrant Threat! (28.5.2025)

His remarks followed a report published earlier on Wednesday by The Wall Street Journal, which stated that ICC Prosecutor Karim Khan is preparing arrest warrants for Ben Gvir and Israeli Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich over their roles in expanding Israeli settlements in the West Bank — activity considered illegal under international law. Both ministers are known for their hardline views and support for accelerating the illegal colonies in occupied Palestinian territories, drawing widespread condemnation from the international community.
