LONDON (Reuters) -Britain is monitoring the situation in the Middle East but has no update on staffing in the region, a spokesperson for Prime Minister Keir Starmer said on Thursday after the United States announced it was moving some personnel due to security concerns.
“The safety of our staff is clearly our top priority so we are monitoring the situation closely but I don’t have an update … in terms of any partial evacuation or otherwise of our own embassies,” the spokesperson told reporters.
