Israel continues to attack the Palestinian territory of Gaza. More than 42,000 Palestinians have been killed so far in this attack that has been going on for more than a year. The outrage against Israel is growing worldwide because of this barbaric aggression.
In such a situation, Nicaraguan President Daniel Ortega has compared Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu with the leader of Nazi Germany, Adolf Hitler. At the same time, he called Netanyahu "the son of Satan".
Anadolu news agency reported this information in a report on Wednesday (October 16).
Nicaraguan President Daniel Ortega last Monday compared Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to Adolf Hitler and referred to him as the "son of Satan," three days after Managua severed diplomatic ties with Israel, according to reports.
"At the head of the Israeli government is a prime minister who is the son of Satan," Ortega said in a speech marking the 45th anniversary of the Nicaraguan police.
President Ortega said he compared Netanyahu to Hitler because the Israeli prime minister has a "practical policy of terror" in the Middle East. He added, "And this is Hitler, yes, the prime minister of Israel is Hitler, calling for the destruction of the people."
Anadolu says the Nicaraguan government severed diplomatic ties with Israel last Friday, one year after Israel's fascist and criminal warlord government continued its brutal genocide against the Palestinian people.
"The government of the Republic of Nicaragua has severed all diplomatic relations with the fascist government of Israel," the statement said.
Vice President Rosario Murillo, wife of President Ortega, announced the decision. The country made this decision based on a resolution of the Nicaraguan parliament. The government also ordered the withdrawal of its ambassador to Israel on Monday.
Israel and Nicaragua re-established diplomatic relations in 2017 after Ortega severed ties in 2010.
It should be noted that since the unprecedented cross-border attack by Hamas on October 7, Israel has been carrying out continuous air and ground attacks on the Gaza Strip. Thousands of buildings including hospitals, schools, refugee camps, mosques, churches have been damaged or destroyed in this Israeli attack.
According to the Gaza Health Authority, about 42,300 people have been killed in Gaza so far. Most of them are women and children. In addition, more than 98 thousand 400 Palestinians were injured.
Palestinian health authorities believe more than 10,000 people are still missing under the rubble of destroyed homes across the Gaza Strip. Israel has continued its brutal attacks on the besieged territory, despite a UN Security Council resolution originally calling for an immediate ceasefire in Gaza.
Israel has already been accused of genocide at the International Court of Justice.
