"Spanish FM Rebukes Israeli Counterpart Over Controversial Hamas Video"

Spain's Foreign Minister Jose Manuel Albares condemned a video posted by Israeli Foreign Minister Israel Katz suggesting Hamas would be grateful to Spain, calling it "scandalous and execrable." This comes amid heightened tensions after Spain announced it would recognize Palestine as a state and Spanish officials referred to the Gaza conflict as a genocide. Israel has rejected these accusations, arguing it is defending itself against Hamas. The diplomatic spat has led Israel to recall its ambassadors from Spain, Ireland, and Norway.
