Did Britain know about Mossad hit? Israeli agent claims MI6 was tipped off

• Agent claims MI5 and Foreign Office were tipped off
• David Miliband vows to 'get to the bottom' of affair
  
• Gordon Brown promises an inquiry into identity theft
• Dubai police chief calls for arrest of Mossad head
• Hamas promises retaliation against Israel

MI6 was tipped off that Israeli agents were going to carry out an 'overseas operation' using fake British passports, it was claimed last night.

A member of Mossad, the Israeli intelligence service, said the Foreign Office was also told hours before a Hamas chief was assassinated in Dubai.

The tip-off did not say who the target would be or even where the hit squad would be in action.
But the claim from a credible source that the Government had some prior knowledge of the abuse of UK passports will strengthen calls for ministers to come clean about what they knew and when.
