He clarified that he was not saying that Israel financed terrorists.
EU foreign policy chief Josep Borrell said that Israel at one time helped create the terrorist group HAMAS, against which the IDF is now fighting in the Gaza Strip.
This is reported by The Times of Israel.
He clarified that he was not saying that Israel financed Hamas terrorists, but allowed its development.
“I'm not saying that Israel financed it by sending checks, but it made possible the development of Hamas as a rival to the leading Palestinian party Fatah. It is an unconditional reality that Israel staked on the division of the Palestinians by creating a force to oppose Fatah “, said Borrell.
Borrell has previously stated that “Hamas was funded by the Israeli government in an attempt to weaken the Palestinian Authority led by Fatah.”
Recall that it was previously reported that Israeli troops are ready to change the timing of the operation near the cities and Rafak in the south of the Gaza Strip.
In addition, we previously reported that The President of Brazil made a loud statement about the war in Gaza and received a sharp response from Israel.
