Really Moved By…” : Israel Envoy After India’s Win Against Pakistan

India maintained the clean sheet over Pakistan in the ODI World Cup history with a seven-wicket win over the side in Ahmedabad on Saturday. This was India’s record-extending 8th win over their arch-rivals at the mega event. Amid this, Israeli Ambassador to India Naor Gilon said that he was moved by several Indians showing their “solidarity with Israel by displaying posters during the match.”

Mr Gilon took to microblogging platform X, formerly Twitter, and said, “We are happy that #India emerged victorious in the #INDvsPAK match at #CWC23 and that Pakistan was unable to attribute its victory to the terrorists of Hamas.” He continued, “We were really moved by Indian friends showing their solidarity with Israel by displaying posters during the match.” He also shared two pictures of a man who held a poster which read “India Stands With Israel In War Against Terrorism”.
