Hamas ‘strongly condemns’ Argentina’s Jerusalem embassy plans
Palestinian terror group Hamas says it “strongly condemns” Argentinian President Javier Milei after he announced plans to move his country’s embassy to Jerusalem on a visit to Israel today.
The terror group, which triggered a war with Israel following its October 7 massacre, says it views the move “an infringement of the rights of our Palestinian people to their land,” and a “violation of the rules of international law.”
Argentina would become one of only a handful of countries to have its main diplomatic mission in Jerusalem, rather than Tel Aviv. The United States made the move in 2018 under the presidency of Donald Trump after he recognized the city as Israel’s capital.
