Descripción:

Sir Keir Starmer has announced the UK's recognition of a Palestinian state, in what represents a significant change in government policy.

In a video statement on X, the prime minister said: "In the face of the growing horror in the Middle East we are acting to keep alive the possibility of peace and a two-state solution."

Australia, Canada and Portugal also announced formal recognition of the state of Palestine, with France expected to follow.

The decision has drawn fierce criticism from the Israeli government, families of hostages held in Gaza and some Conservatives. Responding on Sunday, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said a Palestinian state "will not happen".
