Israel’s ambassador to Canada, Iddo Moed, expressed surprise at Canada’s joint statement with the U.K. and France condemning Israel’s military operations in Gaza, calling it “unprecedented.” The statement criticized Israel’s actions as “wholly disproportionate” and warned of potential sanctions if military operations and humanitarian aid restrictions continue. Amid rising international pressure, Moed emphasized Israel’s resolve to combat Hamas and maintain open communication with Canada regarding humanitarian efforts, while Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre condemned the stance taken by Prime Minister Mark Carney.
