Send airplanes for the evacuation of British nationals stuck in Israel

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

The UK Government has refused support to its nationals, and to send government planes to evacuate people from Israel.
The welfare and the protection of the life of our fellow compatriots should be of outmost importance. The UK government has again ignored the calls of its citizens for rescue, issuing only " vague statements" of support, as of recent.

Why it was rejected

The UK Government or Parliament was already taking the action it asked for.

Since you started your petition the Government has facilitated flights for British nationals leaving Israel and Gaza. You can find out more here: https://www.gov.uk/government/news/uk-government-continues-to-facilitate-british-nationals-leaving-israel-and-gaza
