Foreign Minister Antonio Tajani knows
the efforts Israel is making to avoid civilian casualties in
Gaza, Israeli Ambassador to Rome Alon Bar said after Tajani said
Tel Aviv's response to the October 7 Hamas attacks had been
disproportionate.
"Minister Tajani has been to Israel: he met with Netanyahu, our
foreign minister and the president of parliament, who gave him
details of Israel's efforts to avoid civilian casualties," said
Bar on the sidelines of the celebrations of the 75th anniversary
of diplomatic relations between Italy and Israel.
"We have to make sure that Hamas no longer has the ability to
attack us as it did on 7 October. We are trying to do this by
minimising the number of civilian casualties".
