According to VCAS, in an interview with the Toronto Star published on Tuesday, Jolie said of the ban on arms sales to the Zionist regime: This is a real issue. The comments came after Canadian lawmakers in a lengthy session on Monday voted 204 to 117 in favor of a non-binding plan to suspend arms sales to Israel. At first this plan emphasized the suspension of arms sales to the Zionist regime, but was later changed to a ban on arms sales. In this plan, the support of the "establishment of the Palestinian state" in line with Canada's international partners is also emphasized. Canada had previously temporarily suspended the licensing of military goods and technology to Israel. Regarding this, the Foreign Minister of the Zionist regime in response to this action of Canada said: It is unfortunate that Canada has taken such a decision, which damages Israel's right to defend itself. At the same time, the Italian Prime Minister declared that she is against Israel's operation in Rafah. Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni said: Italy opposes Israel's military operation in Rafah in the southern Gaza Strip and stresses that international laws must be respected. Together with the Prime Minister of Italy, US Senator Bernie Sanders in reaction to the ongoing crimes against humanity by the Zionist regime in Gaza has said that the United States due to the disaster and hunger in Gaza should not give a single penny to Netanyahu's war machine. . In addition, Hebrew-language media reported that Rabbi Zvi Friedman, the leader of the Haredi movement, said that death is better than serving in the Zionist army.
