"When you talk about our view as Palestinians, because we had been suffering from the wars and battles a long time ago, we are totally against any war which erupts anywhere around the world. So, when it came to the current battle between the US and Israel on one side and Iran on the other side, we are completely against this war. It is reprehensible for us, as Palestinians, and it should be reprehensible for any human being," the Palestinian Ambassador to India told ANI.

The advisory applies to Bahrain, Kuwait, Egypt, Lebanon, Iran, Oman, Iraq, Qatar, Israel, the West Bank and Gaza, Saudi Arabia, Syria, Jordan, the United Arab Emirates, and Yemen.

India and Israel further strengthened their defence partnership during the historic visit of Prime Minister Narendra Modi to Israel after nine years. The two countries acknowledged the growth made in defence cooperation and also reaffirmed their commitment to other aspects such as cybersecurity and cross-border terrorism. The visit also saw the decision to upgrade ties to a special strategic partnership.

The historic visit elevated ties to a "Special Strategic Partnership," yielding 27 agreements across technology and security to reach "new heights" in the coming years.

"We are already implementing a large number of projects for the benefit of Palestinian communities, to the extent of nearly $170 million. There are also about $40 million worth of projects in the pipeline, in the areas of education, healthcare, capacity building, and others," he detailed. Beyond these current projects, India remains prepared to scale its engagement in alignment with international peace efforts.
