Spain has intensified pressure on Israel, including an arms embargo against Tel Aviv, as Madrid affirms its recognition of the State of Palestine and describes the prolonged, bloody conflict in the Gaza Strip as genocide. Analysts view this as a “low note” in relations between the European and Middle Eastern nations.

In recent days, a growing number of countries have recognised the State of Palestine, contributing to a positive wave of international support for the Palestinian people amid their ongoing hardships. This international recognition is seen as a vital step toward ensuring lasting peace and regional stability in the Middle East.
