Israel Arrests Two UK Consulate Workers Yahoo News

Israel says it has charged two workers at the British Consulate in Jerusalem with arms trafficking, in connection to an alleged plot by militants to fire a rocket into a football stadium.

Israel’s Shin Bet intelligence agency is accusing the two Palestinians of helping two other suspects who are allegedly members of Hamas to acquire guns.

The four are being linked with an alleged conspiracy to launch a rocket attack on Jerusalem’s Teddy Stadium.

Britain’s Foreign Office has confirmed the arrests and says the UK is urgently seeking confirmation of the charges.

“We have been told by the Israeli authorities that the investigation into our two employees is unrelated to the work they do at the consulate,” the spokesman said.

British sources in Israel say the pair are not thought to be senior members of staff. All staff at British embassies and consulates abroad are meant to undergo strict security screening.
