Mr Shapps said that the move is both symbolic and practical, adding that the UK does have warships in the region “if we needed to divert them” for other reasons.

Grant Shapps is he wearing a BRITISH ARMY PARA REGT TIE ????????? why
How can it be a task force? if there is no force.
When we condemn one side over another are we not adding to the division that exists how does that attitude help the situation?
Jesus wanted dead or alive
Is Grant Shapps wearing a BRITISH ARMY PARA REGT.Regimental tie
He has not served in BRITISH ARMY
Question everything Can't Shapps aka Michael Green says. Research The Guardian and Michael Crick reports, including his resignation over a tragic bullying scandal.
Save Palestine 🇵🇸 Palestine has 7 millions refugees. 4 millions residents. Nobody should be forced to leave their home country.
It really does look like one
The USA and UK governments have blocked every opportunity in the UN to establish peace.
Grant Shapps is he wearing BRITISH ARMY PARA REGT.Regimental tie (sky news why take removing my comment about tie)
sky news removes comments about Grant Shapps TIE ??????????
Is it against the law official secrets act say something about TIE
Where's the news coverage of the Ukrainian war?
WHY IS GRANT SHAPPS USING OUR MONEY FOR A WAR WE DONT WANT TO BE INVOLVED IN
Sky Hamas News removes true comments because they do not like them
More killing won't solve anything and will probably make the situation even worse. Our government should be working for a ceasefire and peace. IMO.
Putin ready to mediate in Israeli-Palestinian conflict
Russian President Vladimir Putin declared on Friday that he is ready to mediate in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
During a meeting of the CIS Council of Heads of State, the Russian president said that in order to resolve the conflict, it is necessary to create an independent Palestine with East Jerusalem as its capital.
"Civilian casualties will be absolutely unacceptable. Now, the main thing is to stop the bloodshed," he added.
Turkey’s Erdogan issues orders sending first humanitarian aid to Gaza
Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has issued instructions to deliver the first batch of humanitarian aid to the Gaza Strip via Egypt.
Aircraft carrying humanitarian cargo have already flown out of Turkey, A Haber television said.
The humanitarian aid will reportedly be delivered via the Rafah crossing point between Egypt and the Gaza Strip.
Looking today at the devastation in Gaza, imagine that being Ukraine!!
The fact we are sending War ships to the region in support of Israel is mind boggling.
Israel Military is more than capable of total destruction of Gaza without any assistance from the UK or other World powers!!
Civilians being Denied water, food and electricity is barbaric.
Hospitals without electricity and medicines is shameful.
Cutting off Gaza Electricity Food & Water and Hospitals unable to treat patients because of no electricity is surely Disgusting!!
Is this a realistic response and proportional response from Israel?
We certainly bang the drum when Putins is killing Civilians
Thank the lord for Britain and helping these Palestinians when they help terrorists…
Get our citizens out and leave them to it,not our war. It will soon turn into our war over here.
Strange, whenever I see Grant Shapps/Michael Green/Corinne Stockheath/Sebastian Fox or whatever his name is this week, I think of the Sex Pistols song Pretty Vacant.
Brilliant
More scaremongering from the msm 🤦♂️
Let's not forget Shapps is Jewish and he married a Jewish lady…Hardly neutral
Funny how these British passport holders live in Israel and don’t pay tax in the UK, but when hey need UK assistance they start waiving the passports!
can't make it up Grant Shapps jewish defence secretary
God isn’t it a worry when the British Government have to get involved they can’t run a bath never mind a country.
Schapps was conveniently appointed just before this war. The issue of course is he’s as useful as an ice pick in hell. Michael Green to for that matter.
No proof what so ever then. Stop misinforming people to sway opinion 👎.
Not British, Israeli with confetti citizenship.
Can't protect our borders but can protect the rest of the world this government is a joke when is enough going to be enough
Is Grant Shapps wearing a BRITISH ARMY PARA REGT. Regimental tie
is this guy defence secretary , he cant even talk or answer
He should get out of his house and do some actual work
Responsibility also may fall on persons planning or instigating the commission of a war crime. In addition, commanders and civilian leaders may be prosecuted for war crimes as a matter of command responsibility when they knew or should have known about the commission of war crimes and took insufficient measures to prevent them or punish those responsible.
Thats not confirmed, like decapitated babies ..
What ewe fail to realize is they are already dead.
These animals beheaded babies, ewe think an adult matters?
The British, as usual, "America will protect us." Hey, at least they're there. The French are absent as always.
