Repatriate British Citizens from Israel and Gaza
Rejected
13 signatures
What the petition asks
The war between Hamas & Israel is escalating every day. British Citizens in Israel & Gaza are struggling to get home to the UK. Routes out are either inaccessible, blocked, dangerous or flights are being continuously cancelled. We call on the British Government to repatriate their citizens.
Other countries such as Germany, Australia and France have all begun efforts to repatriate their citizens, the UK government must do the same. British Airways have suspended all flights due to safety concerns, if the British Government doesn't act soon then their citizens may get trapped in a war zone indefinitely. Friends and family are very concerned about their loves ones.
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
