Israeli envoy condemns burning of Quran in Sweden by agitator wrapped in Israeli flag

Israel’s Ambassador to Sweden Ziv Nevo Kulman condemns the burning of a Quran earlier today in Malmö by a pair of agitators, one of whom was wrapped in an Israeli flag.

“Burning the holy book of Koran while waving the Israeli flag is a disgusting act of disrespect, not only towards the 20% of Israeli citizens of the Muslim faith but also against the values of tolerance and mutual respect. I condemn this cowardly act in the strongest words. Malmö should be united by music the coming week, not hate!,” Kulman tweets.
