Israeli Foreign Minister Israel Katz has decided to “sever the connection” between Spain’s diplomatic mission and Palestinians in the occupied West Bank, AFP reports.
“I have decided to sever the connection between Spain’s representation in Israel and the Palestinians, and to prohibit the Spanish consulate in Jerusalem from providing services to Palestinians from the West Bank,” Katz said in a post on X, adding it was “in response to Spain’s recognition of a Palestinian state and the anti-Semitic call by Spain’s deputy prime minister to… ‘liberate Palestine from the river to the sea’.”
