”The terrorist attacks on Israel are to be condemned in the strongest possible terms! Together we stand by Israel’s side,’’ Kurz tweeted.

Austrian Chancellor Sebastian Kurz flies an Israeli flag on the roof of the chancellery building in Vienna in a mark of solidarity with the State of Israel, amid the conflict between Israel and Hamas.

“The terrorist attacks on Israel are deserving of the strongest condemnation. Together we stand by Israel’s side.”

‘’Today, as a sign of solidarity with Israel, the Israeli flag was raised on the roof of the Federal Chancellery. The terrorist attacks on Israel are to be condemned in the strongest possible terms! Together we stand by Israel’s side,’’ Kurz tweeted on Friday.

Earlier this week, the Austrian leader said: ‘’I strongly condemn the rocket attacks on Israel from the Gaza Strip. Israel has the right to defend itself against them. I hope that there will be a de-escalation and that these attacks will stop with immediate effect.‘‘
