Israeli foreign minister Israel Katz denounced Canada’s decision to suspend future arms exports to Israel, saying “history will judge” the Western nation for reneging on its support for Israel amid the ongoing war with Hamas.
Canadian foreign affairs minister Mélanie Joly announced Tuesday that the Trudeau-led government would stop sending weapons to Israel, Israeli newspaper Haaretz reported. The decision comes one day after the Canadian parliament passed a nonbinding motion intended to limit military aid to Israel and back a two-state solution.
