Caracas : The Venezuelan government Tuesday ordered the expulsion of Israel`s ambassador to Caracas to protest the Israeli military`s offensive in the Gaza Strip, the foreign ministry said.
“Venezuela has decided to expel Israel`s Ambassador” Shlomo Cohen, “and some of the staff at the Israeli Embassy, restating its call for peace and respect for international law,” the ministry said in a statement.
Venezuela accused Israel of “flagrant violations of international law” and having “planned to use state terrorism” against the Palestinian people.
“In this tragic and outrageous hour, the people of Venezuela show its unlimited solidarity with the heroic Palestinian people,” the statement added.
