Russian Official Blames US Foreign Policy for Recent Palestinian Attack on Israel

 TEHRAN (Tasnim) – Former Russian president Dmitry Medvedev, who currently serves as the deputy chairman of Russia's Security Council, attributed the recent major attack on Israeli-occupied territories by Palestinian fighters to failures in the US foreign policy. 


Medvedev, who held the highest office in Russia from 2008 to 2012, linked the United States to the actions of fighters from the military wing of the Palestinian resistance movement Hamas. These resistance fighters entered Israeli-occupied towns and fired rockets from the Gaza Strip.

Expressing his views on the matter, Medvedev shared his perspective on the Telegram platform, stating, "The outbreak of clashes is an event that could have been expected."


Medvedev emphasized the long-standing Israel-Palestine conflict and the significant role played by the United States, saying, "Instead of actively working on a Palestinian-Israeli settlement, these idiots have crept into our country and are helping neo-Nazis with all their might, pitting two close peoples against each other," referring to the conflict in Ukraine. 

He further questioned America's approach to international conflict, remarking, "What can stop America's obsession with fomenting conflict around the world? Apparently, only civil war."

Meanwhile, some Russian bloggers on Telegram expressed support for the attacks on Israel. An account named Rosich posted, "Israelis flee to the military enlistment office," eliciting smiley emojis from several of its 190,000 followers. The Telegram account of Russki Tarantas declared, "There should be not a drop of pity or sympathy" for Israelis, while the channel Frontovic proclaimed, "Israel was on fire!"

Poll: US Public Support for Israel Wanes as 68 Percent Call for Ceasefire

  TEHRAN (FNA)- Israel’s war on Gaza is upsetting many Americans who think it must follow growing demands for an immediate ceasefire, according to a new poll. The Reuters/Ipsos survey found only 32 percent of respondents said “the US should support Israel”. That is down from 41 percent from a poll conducted on October 12-13 – just days after the war broke out. About 68 percent of respondents said they agreed with the statement, “Israel should call a ceasefire and try to negotiate”. Some 39 percent supported the idea “the US should be a neutral mediator”, compared with 27 percent a month earlier. Only 4 percent of respondents said the United States should support Palestinians, while 15 percent said the US shouldn’t be involved at all in the war. While the US has been a significant Israeli ally, just 31 percent of respondents said they supported sending Israel weapons. The plunge in support...

US ‘Biggest Nuclear Threat’: China

  TEHRAN (Tasnim) – The United States poses the greatest danger to the world when it comes to the risks of a potential nuclear conflict, Chinese Defense Ministry spokesman Zhang Xiaogang told journalists on Friday. Beijing has accused Washington of making “irresponsible decisions” in attempts to maintain its hegemony, including through intimidating the international community with its nuclear arsenal, RT reported. The damning statement came in response to the Pentagon’s decision to upgrade US Forces Japan into a joint force headquarters under the command of a three-star officer reporting to the commander of the Indo-Pacific Command. The announcement was made by the US Defense Department in late July following the meeting of the American and Japanese defense and foreign policy chiefs. US Defense Secretary Llyod Austin hailed the development as “one of the strongest improvements in our military ties with Japan in 70 years” at that time. He also said that the two sides “held a separ...
