Following the UK’s recognition of Palestine, Ambassador Husam Zomlot raised the Palestinian flag at the Palestinian Mission in London, declaring, “This flag represents the Palestinian Embassy.” The ceremony was attended by UK Minister for the Middle East Hamish Falconer, civil society groups, and activists.
In his speech, Zomlot praised Palestinian resilience, highlighting students from Gaza who secured scholarships despite war conditions. He said the flag-raising marks “the beginning of the next chapter” toward justice, freedom, and sovereignty, and called for an end to “genocide, ethnic cleansing, and occupation.”
