Brazil has expelled the Israeli ambassador and withdrawn its ambassador from Israel, according to the Israeli Broadcasting Authority.

This move comes just a day after the Israeli government summoned the Brazilian envoy to condemn the President's remarks, likening the situation in Gaza to a war crime and genocide, akin to the Holocaust.

The Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva's comments highlighted the disparity in power between the Israeli occupation armed with advanced weaponry and the vulnerable Palestinian civilians, drawing parallels to the atrocities of the Holocaust.
