Israel's Foreign Minister Gideon Sa'ar spoke with the British Foreign Secretary Tuesday evening, according to Ariel Kahana (Israel Hayom). Sa'ar welcomed the UK's designation of the IRGC as a prohibited organization, called on Britain to also designate Hezbollah's financial institution al-Qard al-Hasan, and stressed that progress on President Trump's Gaza plan depends on Hamas disarmament and demilitarization.
In a statement following his call with the British Foreign Secretary, Foreign Minister Gideon Sa'ar outlined several diplomatic priorities, as reported by Israel Hayom's Ariel Kahana. Sa'ar welcomed the UK government's decision to declare Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) a prohibited organization — a move the UK enacted in July, as The Zioneer reported. He also called on Britain to extend similar measures to Hezbollah's financial arm, al-Qard al-Hasan, describing the severing of Hezbollah's financial infrastructure as critical to curbing its terror activity against Israel and its enduring influence in Lebanon. Additionally, Sa'ar reiterated Israel's position that progress on President Trump's plan for Gaza is conditional on the dismantling of Hamas and other terror groups and the demilitarization of the Strip.
