Eylon Levy, an official “Israeli” government English-speaking spokesperson, has been suspended from his post after complaints from the government of the UK - Hebrew Channel 12 has reported.

This came in response to a post by British Foreign Secretary David Cameron on the “X” platform, in which he urged “Israel” to allow more aid trucks into Gaza due to the “desperate humanitarian need.”

Levy replied to the post by claiming that the border crossings had no problems in terms of the capacity of the aid trucks heading to the Gaza Strip - a statement in which he later deleted from the platform.

"I hope you're also aware that there are no restrictions on the entry of food, water, medicine, or shelter equipment into Gaza, and in fact, the crossings have excess capacity,” Levy claimed in the deleted post.

Subsequently, the British Foreign Ministry questioned whether the tweet, perceived as attacking Cameron, represented “Israel’s” official stance.

Levy has been suspended from his post for over a week, with reports noting that he is “unlikely to return.”

The news of Levy's suspension comes on the same day Benjamin Netanyahu expressed regret over the scarcity of “Israeli” officials who can "string two words together" in English to help further “Israel” claims and stories on the international stage.
