The UK Prime Minister faces warnings that approving the Rosebank oil field could violate sanctions against Israeli settlements in the West Bank. Environmental advocates and Green Party leader Zack Polanski have expressed concerns about the involvement of Delek Group, which has been linked to these settlements and holds a stake in Rosebank through Ithaca Energy.

The decision on Rosebank, Britain's largest untapped oil field, is pending and has significant political implications. The Energy Secretary's ruling will reflect the government's stance on oil and gas production amidst ongoing debates about energy policy and international relations.
