Following this week's killing of multiple aid workers including British citizens by Israel, some top Conservative MPs have called for the UK to stop arming Israel:
This is significant since the Tories have traditionally been the most pro-Israel and pro-arms party. If they are turning against arms sales, they are likely to be joined by Labour, the Lib Dems and the SNP.
Will arms sales to Israel be stopped or restricted in 2024?
The following would count for a YES resolution:
An announcement by the government that arms sales are being stopped or restricted
Legislation banning or restricting arms sales to Israel or to a group designed to include Israel. Non-binding Parliamentary votes would not count.
A court ruling that arms sales must be stopped or restricted. If a ruling goes into effect, that counts even if it is due to be appealed. If it is waiting for appeals to finish before going into effect, that doesn't count yet.
More Tory MPs and Lords are adding their voice to the calls to ban arms sales to Israel. The Spectator are keeping a list here:

Will that list reach 20 names by next Sunday?
