In a post on X, Sa’ar says he spoke with his Argentine counterpart Gerardo Werthein, and expressed “condolences for the victims and offered Israel’s assistance.”

“Israel stands with Argentina during these difficult days,” says Sa’ar.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu also posts his condolences to Argentina’s President Javier Milei.

“On behalf of all Israelis, I send my heartfelt condolences to you and the families of those who tragically perished in Bahía Blanca following the horrific floods,” writes Netanyahu on X.
