Israeli PM criticises leaders after their call for halt to Gaza offensive and restrictions on humanitarian aid

Benjamin Netanyahu has accused Keir Starmer, Emmanuel Macron and Mark Carney of “emboldening Hamas”, after they called for a halt to Israel’s military offensive and an end to restrictions on humanitarian aid in Gaza.

Earlier this week, the leaders of the UK, France and Canada condemned the Israeli government’s “egregious” actions in Gaza, warning that the UK and allies would take “concrete actions” unless Netanyahu changed course.

In a post on X on Thursday evening, the Israeli prime minister said Hamas wanted to “destroy the Jewish state” and “annihilate the Jewish people”.

    So he took a break from war crimes and genocide to once again hide behind his antisemitism shield. That shtick is getting old. And to think for 50 yrs I was a supporter. No more.
