UK in contact with HTS rebel group in Syria: Foreign minister

Britain's foreign minister said Sunday that London had established diplomatic contact with the Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS) rebel group in Syria, which led the offensive that ousted Bashar al-Assad.

They remain "a proscribed terrorist organization, but we can have diplomatic contact, and so we do have diplomatic contact, as you would expect," said Foreign Secretary David Lammy.
