UK Minister Sought to Help Fund IDF Humanitarian Aid to Syrian War Casualties
(Times of Israel) UK International Development Secretary Priti Patel is under fire for holding unauthorized talks with Israeli officials while on a family vacation in Israel in August. She discussed providing UK aid to help Israel's efforts to treat wounded Syrians in the Golan Heights. On Monday Patel issued a full apology. "In hindsight, I can see how my enthusiasm to engage in this way could be misread, and how meetings were set up and reported in a way which did not accord with the usual procedures."
