Jerusalem Deputy Mayor Targets British Consulate: “No Sovereignty, But Israeli Electricity Is Fine?” Jerusalem Deputy Mayor Aryeh King protested outside the British Consulate in the city, accusing Britain of hypocrisy over its policy toward eastern Jerusalem. King argued that while Britain rejects Israeli sovereignty in the area, its consulate continues to rely on Israeli electricity, water, communications and other services. His protest comes amid a broader diplomatic confrontation between Israel and the United Kingdom, including Israel’s decision to close the British Consulate in Jerusalem in response to new British measures against Israel.
