To view this video please enable JavaScript, and consider upgrading to a web browser that supports HTML5 video The UK’s foreign secretary has been forced to run for cover during a visit to southern Israel. A video showed James Cleverly and a group running into a building as air sirens blared in Ofakim. The feared attack comes after Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu agreed to form an emergency government with the opposition party.
It is hard to spot the foreign secretary in the footage but you can see Mr Cleverly wearing red socks as he runs towards the entrance. He arrived in Israel this morning as part of a trip to ‘demonstrate the UK’s unwavering solidarity’ with the country, a foreign office spokesman said earlier today. Got a story?
