The Israeli foreign ministry posted a video message addressed to Ireland on the social media platform X warning that “recognising a Palestinian state risks turning you into a pawn in the hands of Iran and Hamas”, adding the move would “only fuel extremism and instability”. For decades, the formal recognition of a Palestinian state has been seen as the endgame of a peace process between Palestinians and their Israeli neighbours.

It had earlier been recognised by six other European countries: Bulgaria, Cyprus, the Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland and Romania. No fewer than 46 persons, including vigilante, operatives, have been killed in Zurak village, Bashar District of Wase Local Council of Plateau State, injuring others in the community.
