Brazil angered by Israeli statement on foiled Hezbollah attack

Justice minister Flavio Dino said today the operation had no links to the war in Gaza.

RIO DE JANEIRO: Brazilian justice minister Flavio Dino delivered a stiff rebuke to Israel today after its Mossad spy agency said it had helped foil an attack by the Islamist group Hezbollah on Jewish targets in Brazil.

Earlier yesterday, Brazil’s federal police arrested two unnamed people on terrorism charges, and carried out 11 search and seizure warrants on properties. Dino said the investigations that resulted in yesterday’s operations “began before the outbreak of the ongoing tragedies on the international scene”, and said the investigation had “nothing to do with international conflicts”.

He did not explicitly deny any of the details in the Israeli statement, but seemed more angered by its timing, tone and the link it drew to the current war in Gaza.Dino’s comments may chill relations with the Israeli government as Brazil tries to negotiate a safe exit for around 30 Brazilians still stuck in Gaza.
