Britain to expel Israeli diplomat
Britain is to expel an Israeli diplomat over the cloning of British passports linked to the hit-squad killing of a Hamas commander, the BBC has learned.
Foreign Secretary David Miliband is due to make a statement to Parliament later.
Israel has denied allegations that its agents were behind the killing of Mahmoud al-Mabhouh, in a Dubai hotel room in January.
Mr Miliband demanded that Tel Aviv co-operate fully with the investigation.
Twelve fake British passports were used in the killing of Mr al-Mabhouh, the founder of Hamas's military wing, in his hotel room in Dubai on 19 January.
