South American Nations Sever Ties with Israel over Gaza Attacks

Bolivia has announced that it is cutting diplomatic ties with Israel in response to the ongoing attacks on Gaza, condemning Israel's "aggressive and disproportionate military offensive." Chile and Colombia have also announced the recall of their ambassadors, citing Israeli violations of humanitarian law. The shift in South America comes after Israeli strikes hit a crowded refugee camp in Gaza, resulting in numerous casualties. International human rights groups have expressed concern over Israel's bombardment and siege on Gaza, which has led to a worsening humanitarian crisis. Bolivia's decision makes it one of the few Latin American countries without diplomatic relations with Israel.
