Foreign Ministry welcomes EU call to disarm Gaza terrorists
Foreign Ministry spokesman Yigal Palmor praised the European Union’s call to disarm Gaza’s terrorist groups and prevent illegal arms flows late Friday.
“Just like EU ministers, Israel attaches great importance to the Egyptian initiative aimed at securing a stable, long-term ceasefire,” Palmor said in a statement.
Palmor added that the demilitarization of the Palestinian enclave “will ensure a change of the situation [in Gaza] at its core.”
