On Wednesday, Russian President Vladimir Putin harshly criticized Israel for its actions in Gaza, claiming they amounted to the “complete elimination of the civilian population” in the area.
Speaking with representatives from international news organizations, including AFP, Putin remarked, “What is currently happening in Gaza in response to the terrorist attack on Israel does not resemble a war at all. It is akin to the complete elimination of the civilian population.”
Putin further stated that no single nation should dominate the pursuit of peace in the Middle East, and emphasized Russia’s efforts to contribute to these peace initiatives.
He highlighted that the United States also plays a crucial role and emphasized the need for cooperation between Washington and Moscow to reach agreements.
This instance marks another occasion where Putin has openly criticized Israel regarding the conflict in Gaza.
In December, Putin addressed the situation in Gaza, saying, “What is happening there is a catastrophe – if you look at the special military operation in Ukraine, you can see the difference. What is happening in Gaza, is not happening in Ukraine at all.”
Previously, Putin had commented on the Gaza conflict, stating, “This is not acceptable to me. Two million people live there. Not all of them support Hamas.”
At that time, Kan 11 News reported that Israel had communicated a strong message to Russia, expressing its dissatisfaction and disappointment with the reactions of Russian senior officials towards the war against Hamas.

It’s time to practice what you preach
its very funny if it would be a joke
Here is the kettle calling the pot, black.
Had Israel wanted to completely eliminate the population in Gaza, they would have been able to accomplish it in less than a month. Obviously, Israel is doing exactly what you, Putin, has been doing in Ukraine over 2 years – eliminating the evil from down below.
Nor can one compare Russia’s conflict in Ukraine as the latter are just a bunch of scientific natural matter, not a civilian population. It is akin to an exterminator doing his job, Poooti-Poot would exclaim.
The previous governments of Lapid and Bennett blasted Putin and supported Ukraine. Why ??? The stuck their noses in where they didn’t belong.
