Israel condemns Poland's false accusations on Gaza and Holocaust, calling remarks "outrageous" and "distorting history." Jerusalem rebukes Polish officials for dishonoring Holocaust victims.
Jerusalem, 5 August, 2025 (TPS-IL) — Israel summoned Poland’s ambassador on Monday for a formal rebuke over comments by Polish officials accusing Israel of using hunger as a weapon in Gaza and invoking Holocaust imagery. The Foreign Ministry called the remarks “false and outrageous,” saying they distort history and dishonor Holocaust victims.
“Israel is fighting a terrorist organization that seeks the destruction of the Jewish state,” said the head of the Political-Strategic Directorate. The official added that Israel operates under international humanitarian law and has expanded aid efforts in Gaza, including convoys, humanitarian pauses, and air-dropped supplies.
“This is a shared moral responsibility,” the statement said, urging Poland to avoid politicizing Holocaust memory.
