PM Netanyahu speaks with German Chancellor Friedrich Merz

Prime Minister’s Office:

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu spoke with the German Chancellor Friedrich Merz this evening and expressed his disappointment with Merz’s decision to embargo arms to Israel.

Instead of supporting Israel‘s just war against Hamas, which carried out the most horrific attack against the Jewish people since the Holocaust, Germany is rewarding hamas terrorism by embargoing arms to Israel.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said that Israel’s goal is not to take over Gaza, but to free Gaza from Hamas and enable a peaceful government to be established there.
