(about 1 hour later) | |
Israel has angrily denied claims that it threatened the safety of a South African minister, and in return has accused her of a "blood libel" and "serving as the legal arm" of Hamas. | |
Relations between the two countries hit a new low last month, when South Africa filed a case against Israel at the International Court of Justice, accusing Israel of committing genocide in Gaza - a charge it has rejected. | |
Since then, Naledi Pandor said she had spoken to South African Police Minister Bheki Cele about beefing up her security after she received threatening messages. | |
"The Israeli agents, the intelligence services, [this] is how they behave, and they seek to intimidate you, so we must not be intimidated. There is a cause that is under way,” she was quoted by local media as saying. | |
Israel's strong rebuke came on Friday, with the ministry of foreign affairs telling the BBC: | |
These are baseless and false accusations, yet another blood libel by the South African foreign minister, who serves as the legal arm of the Hamas terrorist organisation. | |
South Africa is trying to undermine Israel's right to defend itself and its citizens, and to promote the interests of Hamas and Iran in the Middle East and Africa. | |
The South African government's support for terrorism and its actions against Israel on the bilateral and international levels are an indelible stain." | |
Around 1,200 people were killed during the Hamas attacks on southern Israel on 7 October, according to Israeli officials. | |
More than 27,800 Palestinians have been killed and at least 67,000 injured by the war launched by Israel in response, according to the Hamas-run health ministry. | |
Correction | |
13 February: This post wrongly reported that about 1,300 people had been killed | |
following the 7 October attack by Hamas. This was based on counting those who | |
later died from their injuries in addition to the figure of more than 1,200. | |
The article has been amended to now refer to about 1,200 deaths, a figure which | |
includes those deaths and which Israel says is not final. | |
