Dagan, who was not injured, continued his lecture despite the disturbance. He said that such behavior would not stop him.
“This is not something that will deter me or prevent me from reaching out to the community in Sweden. As advocates of Israel, it is our duty to present Israel’s just struggle. My public appearances are important for the many friends of Israel in Sweden,” he told Ynet.
“My avoidance (of public events) and hiding is exactly the behavior my enemies want,” he added.
The Foreign Ministry said, in a statement, that “the incident is an expression of the atmosphere created by extreme elements and some of the media in Sweden, who are finding fertile soil for their baseless accusations against Israel to take root.”
