Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has taken a strong stance against the Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez's "shameful comments" regarding Hamas terrorists' recent attack in Jerusalem. The Israeli Prime Minister has instructed the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Eli Cohen, to summon the Spanish Ambassador to Israel for a reprimand. Hamas terrorists brutally murdered three innocent Israelis in Jerusalem on Thursday morning. Two terrorist brothers, residents of Jerusalem, opened fire on a group of people waiting at a bus stop during the morning rush hour. Their heinous act was thwarted by two off-duty IDF reservists who happened to be passing by and took immediate action to neutralize the attackers.

However, instead of acknowledging the morning's attack, the Spanish Prime Minister expressed doubts about Israel's concerns for the humanitarian situation in Gaza, particularly with regard to the civilian population. This callous disregard for the lives lost in the terrorist attack has drawn condemnation from the Israeli government. In response to these disrespectful and baseless accusations, Israel has summoned its Ambassador to Madrid, Rodica Radian, for consultations. Foreign Minister Eli Cohen emphasized that Israel will continue to act in accordance with international law and will persist in its efforts to secure the release of kidnapped individuals and eradicate Hamas in Gaza.

The Israeli government remains committed to ensuring the safety of its citizens and is determined to protect its sovereignty. Prime Minister Netanyahu's decision to summon the Spanish Ambassador demonstrates Israel's resolve and refusal to tolerate any form of criticism that undermines its security concerns. The reprimand session serves as a clear message that Israel will not stand idly by while its interests and the lives of its people are undermined. The incidents in Jerusalem highlight the ongoing threats faced by Israel and the imperative for the international community to support its efforts in combating terrorism.

It is crucial for world leaders to demonstrate solidarity and condemn terrorist acts, rather than casting doubt on Israel's legitimate concerns. The Israeli government's decision to confront Spain over these "shameful comments" serves as a reminder of the importance of addressing international issues responsibly and accurately. It is incumbent upon leaders to prioritize the safety and well-being of their citizens, and Israel expects the same level of concern and understanding from its international counterparts.
