Israel vs Hamas War Update: Spain as well as Ireland and Norway also announced official recognition of Palestine as a state, dealing a major blow to Israel. Irish Prime Minister Simon Harris said on Wednesday that this is a step taken with Ireland, Spain and Norway. It aims to resolve the ongoing conflict between Israel and Palestine through a two-state solution.
Israel fiercely attacked all three countries
Meanwhile, Israel has been enraged by the decision of the three countries. Its Foreign Minister Katz has ordered Israel's ambassadors from Ireland and Norway to return immediately. Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez said his country would recognize Palestine as a state on May 28. Katze said that Norway and Ireland should hear that we are not going to remain silent on this matter. This is a step to weaken Israel's sovereignty and security.
America was told in advance
Earlier this month, Spain's Foreign Minister Jose Alberes said he had already informed US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken of his government's intention to recognize Palestine. However, Israel also warned Spain that it would take similar steps as Norway and Ireland. It is noteworthy that the southernization of Palestine has been done by three countries at a time when a terrible war is going on between Israel and Gaza.
