The statement comes amid heightened tensions between Israel and the United Kingdom following new British measures targeting Israeli settlements in the West Bank.
British members of a Somaliland-Israel friendship movement criticized the UK government’s policies toward Israel and said they had urged their community not to vote for the governing party, according to a statement sent to The Jerusalem Post.
The statement, issued under the name of the Somaliland-Israel Friendship & Abrahamic Movement’s UK branch, said its British members wished to “make our position clear.”
“We strongly criticize the current policies of this UK government towards Israel,” the statement read. “These policies do not represent the will of the British people living in the UK.”
