Certainly the comments that I've seen coming out of the Israeli settlements themselves have been defiant, saying they don't care about this action, that Israel has given the authorisation for these settlements to be there and that is what the Israeli residents care about. matched

But there is a segment of Israeli society that does acknowledge that what has happened under this Israeli government is really something quite unprecedented. matched

104 new settlements authorised in the West Bank and settler violence now at an all-time high, according to the UN. matched

And that has led to this response. matched

There is one Israeli commentator writing in the newspaper Yediot Aharonot this morning, saying that Jerusalem had prepared for rain, but what arrived yesterday was a full-blown storm. matched

That really referring to the fact that while Israel had prepared countermeasures to deal with what was expected, this announcement from the UK, it was actually a list of a dozen countries putting out a joint statement against settlements and trade with settlements, and Canada and France expected to take matched

Just over a month's time, six weeks' time, he's called this also a moral distortion. matched

The Israeli media pointing out that it is unprecedented to have this closure of a consulate in Jerusalem. matched

And the British one has been there since the 1830s. matched

And it's been told now by Israeli officials that within 30 days it must cease its operations and that the diplomats who are working there will have their accreditation rescinded. matched

I think it is surprising and it will cause real discomfort for many Israeli officials. matched

There is a report by the Israeli journalist Barak Ravid in Axios and on Israel's Channel 12 saying that in that call between the British Prime Minister Andy Burnham and President Trump, matched

where he spoke to him ahead of the British announcement that it was made clear that there would be a British move to ban settlement goods and that President Trump did not oppose that. matched
