Foreign Secretary to give statement on the execution of Alireza Akbari

At approximately 15.30pm, foreign secretary James Cleverly will make a statement to the House of Commons on the execution of British-Iranian man Alireza Akbari, who had been sentenced to death by the Iranian regime.

The ex-deputy Iranian defence minister was arrested in 2019 and convicted of spying for the UK, which he denied.

Following this, defence secretary Ben Wallace will give an update on the Ukraine War.
