Spoke with the Prime Minister of Papua New Guinea Hon. James Marape.
I thanked him for his support and true friendship with the State of Israel.
We appreciate his decision to open PNG’s embassy in Jerusalem in 2023.
I informed him of my decision to open Israel’s Representative Office in Papua New Guinea.
We will advance bilateral relations!
🇮🇱🇵🇬

Bula vinaka. Last week in #Fiji I was honored to accompany FM @gidonsaar as he inaugurated the embassy of @Israel in Suva. Many of my colleagues at @IsraelMFA worked very hard for this, and many of us will continue to strengthen our relations with the #Pacific. Vinaka vekalevu!

Great meeting H.E. Secretary General of the Pacific Islands Forum Baron Waqa in Fiji.
We view the Pacific region a friendly area with huge potential.
Our new embassy in Suva will also serve as a regional embassy.

The Prime Minister of Fiji @slrabuka is a dear friend of Israel and the Jewish people, and a visionary leader.
Honored to meet the PM during my visit to open Israel’s embassy in Fiji today, just 9 months after he opened Fiji’s embassy in Jerusalem.
Our mutual decision to elevate relations reflects a commitment to strengthen our friendship for future generations.
🇮🇱🇫🇯

Honored to meet the President of Fiji, H.E. Ratu Naiqama Lalabalavu, during my visit to open Israel’s new embassy in Suva.

My foreign policy: We invest in friends, and Fiji is a true friend of Israel.
We hope to soon welcome the President in Jerusalem.

People say the left and the right can’t agree on anything these days. But there is this one thing:

[Israel in Australia @IsraelinOZ]

Today, Ambassador @Hillel_Newman and Deputy Ambassador @Amir_Meron were pleased to meet with President Hermiz Shahen @Atouraya and fellow members of the Assyrian National Council of Australia @Ancauorg.

They discussed the rich history of the Assyrian community, the challenges it faces today, and the longstanding friendship between our peoples.

Thank you for your continued support of Israel. We look forward to strengthening our cooperation in the future!

Had an important conversation with leaders of the Iranian diaspora in Australia, representing a community of around 90,000 who oppose the ayatollah regime and support efforts to weaken it and advance a democratic alternative.

I briefed them on the Iranian threat and the IDF’s actions against Iran and Hezbollah in Lebanon, and thanked them for their strong support for Israel and the Jewish community in Australia.

Spoke with Australia’s FM @SenatorWong. We discussed at length developments in the war in Iran and Lebanon.

I emphasized the massive scale of missile, rocket, and drone attacks against Israel from Lebanon. Israel is acting to defend its communities and citizens. I described the reality of life these days in our northern communities, to which residents returned after over a year in which they didn't live in their homes.
Most international media outlets are currently portraying the situation on only one side of the border. Unfortunately, the Lebanese government is not taking practical steps against Hezbollah, neither to stop the attacks on Israeli civilians, nor in other contexts.

I welcomed the arrival of Australia’s new ambassador to Israel, Neil Hawkins, and expressed my gratitude for the swift acceptance of the credentials of our ambassador in Canberra, @Hillel_Newman.

This isn’t satire - it’s blatant antisemitism.

Australian @FinancialReview cartoonist David Rowe pushes vile, old stereotypes about Jews controlling power, dressed up with mocking Yiddish. It’s not clever or brave, it’s toxic and disgraceful.

Look at this pic I took today in #TLV. An entry hole in the roof of a residential building created by an Iranian #clusterbomb. It demolished the apartment above my friend's , where he lives with his wife and 3 daughters who ran to a nearby shelter.

"It isn't an opinion that CBC is one-sided. We now have scientific irrefutable proof."

This morning at the Standing Committee on Canadian Heritage (CHPC) on Parliament Hill, our Executive Director, @MikeFegelman, testified about the systemic bias in @CBCNews' coverage of Israel following the Hamas terrorist attacks of October 7, 2023, when more than 1,200 Israelis were brutally murdered, and many more were horrifically raped, tortured, and maimed, and more than 250 were abducted and held hostage in Gaza.

Come for the history lesson, stay for the moral clarity.

Brilliant speech by Canadian Member of Parliament @shuvmajumdar!

[Israel in Australia @IsraelinOZ]

The Embassy of Israel welcomes Her Honour VP Judge Tran’s ruling that the chant “All Zionists are terrorists” at a Melbourne rally breached Victoria’s racial vilification laws.

Anti-Zionism too often masks antisemitism. We have learnt from history that rhetoric can lead to physical violence.
