UK: Charity regulator opens case into community centre for promoting illegal Israeli settlements

Britain 's charity regulator has opened a compliance case into the Jewish Community Centre London (JW3) after it hosted an event which promoted medical clinics in illegal Israeli settlements, Middle East Eye can reveal. The MedEx event , which was held at JW3 in Camden on 25 October, was primarily organised by the Israeli government. It advertised itself as a "can't miss event for doctors and medical students from across the United Kingdom who are considering Aliyah", or Jewish migration to Israel. Leaflets at the event promoted medical clinics in settlements in occupied Palestinian territory, which the British government considers illegal in line with international law, Sky News reported .
