Netanyahu condemns Macron’s arms embargo call amid Israel’s conflict – Israel News

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu condemned French President Emmanuel Macron and other Western leaders for calling for an arms embargo on Israel, declaring, “Shame on them!” Netanyahu accused them of hypocrisy, pointing out Iran’s support for terror groups in the region while these leaders seek to limit Israel’s defense capabilities.

As pressure mounts on Israel over its military operations, particularly in Gaza, Macron suggested reevaluating arms supplies to Israel due to the humanitarian impact. Despite this, Netanyahu emphasized Israel’s ongoing battle against extremism, led by Iran, and called for global solidarity in the fight.

Netanyahu remained defiant, expressing confidence in Israel’s ability to prevail despite the calls for an arms embargo. He stressed that Israel’s right to self-defense is unquestionable and urged international support in the face of ongoing threats. The Prime Minister’s strong stance received support from MK Boaz Bismuth, who criticized Macron’s embargo call as outrageous.

Amidst the escalating tensions, Israel continues to defend itself on multiple fronts, with Netanyahu highlighting Iran as the primary instigator of attacks against Israel. The conflict remains a global concern, with Israel determined to overcome obstacles and secure its citizens’ safety.
