Former UK Labour Party leader Jeremy Corbyn told Al Jazeera’s Inside Story that the UK’s decision to partially suspend weapons exports to Israel shows the UK foreign secretary is “cognisant” of human rights abuses in Gaza.

But, Corbyn added, the UK could still face legal action, because “Britain still supplies a lot of other weapons to Israel”, including F-35 jet parts.

“There is nothing right about what Israel is doing at the present time. They are committing acts of genocide and we should be acting accordingly, in accordance with international law,” said Corbyn.
