A day before Jerusalem and Hamas reached a ceasefire to end the latest round of fighting, Germany’s Foreign Minister Heiko Maas visited Israel. He toured the city of Petah Tikva, where a rocket fired from Gaza destroyed a home.
His trip was used by Israel in its PR war against Hamas, and Maas delivered: “The fact that we see that Hamas is again firing missiles into the south of Israel, since we have arrived here in Tel Aviv, is for us an indication of how serious the situation is that the people of Israel find themselves in,” the foreign minister said.
