Thats sarcasm BTW...


Moscow hosts Hamas delegation and Iran’s deputy FM, prompting Israeli outrage


"As terror group leader Abu Marzouk meets with Putin’s Middle East envoy Bogdanov in Moscow, Jerusalem brands invitation ‘obscene,’ calls for immediate expulsion of Hamas officials"


"Hamas representatives arrived in Moscow on Thursday to discuss the ongoing war with Israel with Russia’s deputy foreign minister, Mikhail Bogdanov, in a meeting that was also attended by Ali Bagheri Kani, the deputy foreign minister of the terror group’s chief sponsor, Iran."


(Turkey is "the terror group’s chief sponsor"

 but that's not the point here.

The point is they met, in Moscow.)


"The Hamas delegation also praised the position of Russian President Vladimir Putin, and the efforts of Russian diplomacy.

"Bogdanov, who is also Putin’s special envoy to the Middle East, reportedly expressed Russia’s support for the rights of the Palestinian people, and spoke of his country’s efforts to achieve a ceasefire and open humanitarian corridors in Gaza."

"The Israeli Foreign Ministry scolded Russia for hosting representatives of the terror group, as Jerusalem’s public frustration with Russia grew. “Hamas is a terrorist organization worse than ISIS,” ministry spokesman Lior Haiat tweeted."

Israel sees the invitation of senior Hamas officials to Moscow as an obscene step that gives support to terrorism and legitimizes the atrocities of Hamas terrorists,” the Foreign Ministry said, and called on Moscow to immediately expel the Hamas leaders."

"Israel has repeatedly called out Moscow in recent days over its frequent statements against the Jewish state in the context of the war in Gaza, the Foreign Ministry told The Times of Israel on Tuesday."

"An Israeli diplomat had a conversation with a Russian official this week to express Jerusalem’s “displeasure with the role Russia is playing” in the war against Hamas, and to stress Israel’s hope that Moscow will take “more balanced” positions, the ministry added."

"Among other positions, Moscow submitted a UN Security Council resolution calling for a ceasefire that did not mention Hamas, and was therefore voted down by the United States, Britain, France and others. Moscow has backed Israel’s right to defend itself but has blasted Israel for employing “cruel methods” in its campaign against the terror group."

"Meanwhile, bilateral ties appear to be expanding between Moscow and Tehran. Earlier this week, Iran announced it is close to concluding a free-trade agreement with the Eurasian Economic Union, an economic bloc of post-Soviet countries led by Russia."


("There's battle lines

being drawn..."

)

"Deputy foreign ministers of the two countries held a meeting on Thursday to discuss ways to promote multilateralism, international peace and security “at a time when certain countries are acting unilaterally,” an Iranian statement said."
