Updated: OCTOBER 13, 2023 09:55The deputy director for Asia and the Pacific at the Foreign Ministry, Ambassador Rafi Harpaz, expressed Israel’s “deep disappointment” with China’s statements concerning Hamas’s assault on southern Israel, in a recent discussion with the Chinese special envoy to the Middle East, Zhai Jun.
Harpaz stressed that the messages from China have “no clear and unambiguous condemnation of the terrible attack and heinous massacre committed by the terrorist organization Hamas against innocent civilians and the abduction of dozens of them to Gaza.”
“There is neither an element regarding Israel’s right to defend itself and its citizens, a fundamental right of any sovereign state that was attacked in an unprecedented manner and with cruelty that has no place in human society.”
