Israel to Close Dublin Embassy
(Israel Hayom) Adi Nirman - Israeli Foreign Minister Gideon Sa'ar ordered the closure of Israel's embassy in Ireland on Sunday in response to what he characterized as the Irish government's "extreme anti-Israel policies." Last week, Ireland announced it would join South Africa's case against Israel at the International Court of Justice (ICJ) in The Hague, which accuses Israel of genocide. "Ireland's antisemitic actions and rhetoric against Israel are rooted in delegitimization and demonization of the Jewish state and reflect clear double standards," Sa'ar said. "Ireland has crossed all red lines in its treatment of Israel. We will redirect our resources toward advancing bilateral relations with countries based on priorities that reflect how different nations relate to Israel."
