On Tuesday, "Israel" reported that Argentina's President Javier Milei pledged to move his country's embassy from "Tel Aviv" to occupied al-Quds.

Upon his arrival to the occupied territories for the first official visit to occupied Palestine since he assumed office in December, he was welcomed by Israeli Foreign Minister Israel Katz upon arriving at Ben Gurion airport.

As stated by the Israeli Foreign Ministry, the Argentinian president said he would relocate his country's embassy to occupied al-Quds. Katz told Milei, “It is no wonder that you chose to come to Israel right away to support us in the just struggle for the defense of the Jewish people against Hamas."

"I congratulate my friend, Argentine President Javier Milei, on the decision to move the embassy to Jerusalem,” Israeli Police Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir said on X.
