Israel bars entry to Italian UN official

(ANSA) - TEL AVIV, FEB 12 - Israel has decided to bar an Italian United Nations official, Special Rapporteur on the Occupied Palestinian Territories Francesca Albanese, from entering the country.
    The Israeli foreign and interior ministries said the ban on entry was linked to "her outrageous assertions that the victims of the October 7 massacre were not killed for being Jewish but in response to Israeli oppression". (ANSA).
