The UK summoned Israel's ambassador over a controversial settlement plan that breaches international law and affects the two-state solution.
LONDON (Reuters) -Britain summoned Israel's ambassador in London on Thursday following Israel's approval of a widely condemned settlement plan that would cut across land which the Palestinians seek for a state.
Britain, along with other European nations, has slammed the plan as a "flagrant" breach of international law that would undermine the idea of a two-state solution.

A settlement plan refers to a proposal for establishing residential areas or developments in a specific region, often involving land that may be contested or claimed by different parties, such as in the Israeli-Palestinian context.
International law consists of rules and principles that govern the relations and dealings of nations with each other, as well as the conduct of international organizations and individuals in the global arena.
A two-state solution is a proposed framework for resolving the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, envisioning an independent State of Palestine alongside the State of Israel, aimed at ensuring peace and coexistence.
