US ambassador to Israel accuses British government of antisemitism

The US ambassador to Israel has accused the British government of antisemitism after Britain’s foreign secretary described the situation in Gaza as “terrible.”

In a video, Foreign Secretary Ed Miliband referred to reports that medicine was being blocked and that children were dying while waiting for lifesaving treatment. Mike Huckabee responded in a post on X: “The British have lost their minds. Their government’s antisemitism knows no limits and takes no account of the facts.”

Israel’s Foreign Ministry also rejected Miliband’s account. “If the foreign secretary were interested in facts rather than stories, he would know that there are absolutely no restrictions on the entry of medicine into the Gaza Strip, and that no medicine is being blocked,” the ministry wrote on X.

The ministry added that 22,500 tons of medical supplies had entered Gaza since a ceasefire between Hamas and Israel was reached in October 2025. The statements reflect a sharp dispute over conditions in Gaza and the movement of medical supplies.
