Defense Minister Yoav Gallant tells a visiting delegation of North American Jewish leaders, “Only victory against Hamas will allow us to achieve normalization and regional integration.”
“The president of Brazil was [supported] by the presidents of Bolivia and Colombia – their words are outrageous and amount to incitement. While many in the world, including some leaders, attack us, we, the Jewish people and the State of Israel, must stand strong and united. We must understand that we are fighting a just war against a brutal enemy, a terrorist organization,” Gallant says.
Brazilian President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva said Israel was committing “genocide” in Gaza and likened it to the Holocaust.
