According to reports from Reuters today, quoting eyewitnesses, as Israel's request for Britain to close its consulate in Jerusalem expires, some workers removed the British Consulate in Jerusalem's doorplate. On September 8, Britain announced sanctions against Jewish settlements, and Israel immediately demanded that Britain close its consulate in Jerusalem within 30 days and withdraw local diplomats. On October 5, Israeli media quoted people familiar with the matter as reporting that Britain's top national security official secretly visited Israel last week to try to prevent Israel from closing the British consulate in Jerusalem. However, the two sides are still unable to reach an agreement. British media previously reported that if Israel persists in closing the British Consulate in Jerusalem, Britain will expel 27 Israeli diplomats and their families.
