Israeli Ambassador to Poland Jaakow Finkelstein said in an interview with "Fakt" that Poland has good relations with Israel as well as with Iran. "We anticipate Poland to stand clearly on the right side of past at this point and support Israel in this campaign, which besides protects Europe and the values of democracy, freedom and human rights that Poland has professed," he said at the same time.
Finkelstein: We will consider any offer we receive
But could the capital of Poland become a place to talk about peace in the mediate East? possibly if there are diplomatic channels in this case. Our 2 abroad ministers discussed yesterday (17 June-ed.). It was a good conversation. They know how to communicate specified messages. We will consider any offer we receive," the diplomat said.
Finkelstein besides pointed out that "Poland is simply a friend of Israel with whom we have long-term relations". These relationships had their ups and downs. We have had any turbulence, but for a long time the situation has stabilised and is taking a very affirmative pace – he noted.
Let us remind you that "Times of Israel" reported on Wednesday, June 18, that Iran fired more than 400 ballistic missiles and about 1,000 drones towards Israel from the beginning of the conflict on Friday – this is how the latest Israeli Army (IDF) data shows. Over 20 rockets hit urban areas, causing crucial damage. 24 people died and over 500 were injured.
Of the 1,000 drones little than 200 reached the borders of Israel, but no hit the target—all were intercepted or dropped earlier.
