Pakistan Defence Minister’s call for Israel’s annihilation is outrageous. This is not a statement that can be tolerated from any government, especially not from one that claims to be a neutral arbiter for peace.
: Prime Minister of Israel
Israel views very gravely these blatant antisemitic blood libels from a government claiming to “mediate peace”. Calling the Jewish state “cancerous” is effectively calling for its annihilation.
Israel will defend itself against terrorists who vow its destruction.

Foreign Affairs Minister of Israel
