Asus Malaysia replies local artist demanding take down of brand’s Israeli social media posts, in solidarity with under-siege PalestineMOSCOW, Nov 7 — Russia’s foreign ministry said on Tuesday that a remark by an Israeli junior minister who appeared to express openness to the idea of Israel carrying out a nuclear strike on Gaza had raised a huge number of questions.
Asked in a radio interview about a hypothetical nuclear option, Eliyahu had replied: “That’s one way.” Israel does not publicly acknowledge it has nuclear weapons though the Federation of American Scientists estimates Israel has about 90 nuclear warheads. Eliyahu remark drew condemnation from around the Arab world, scandalised mainstream Israeli broadcasters, was deemed “objectionable” by a US official, and Iran called for a swift international response.
