Nicaragua has accused the Jewish state of “genocide” of the Palestinian people
The Nicaraguan government has announced its decision to sever diplomatic relations with Israel after the country’s National Assembly unilaterally condemned West Jerusalem for perpetrating “genocide” and military aggression beyond the Palestinian territories.
According to a resolution passed on Friday, this break in relations is a response to the “brutal genocide that the fascist and war criminal government of Israel continues to commit against the Palestinian people.”
President Daniel Ortega has already instructed the Foreign Ministry to “abide” by the parliament’s request and cut diplomatic relations with Israel, according to Vice President Rosario Murillo.
The lawmakers stated that Israel's ongoing war in Gaza has already spilled into neighboring countries such as Lebanon and Syria and risks escalating into a direct conflict with Iran. The statement emphasizes Nicaragua's solidarity with the Palestinian people and expresses support for their struggle for freedom and self-determination.

“We respect the Israeli people who demand the cessation of this massacre, barbarism, and crimes committed by the nefarious Zionist government and army,” wrote Nicaraguan lawmakers, calling the Israeli government “an enemy of humanity, which intends to spread its barbarism throughout the Middle East, endangering world peace and security.”
Israel launched its military operation in Gaza last year after Hamas militants breached the border and killed around 1,100 Israelis while taking more than 200 hostages. The IDF's bombing and ground operations have devastated large parts of the enclave, killing over 42,000 Palestinians, according to the Gaza Health Ministry.
Hezbollah attacked Israel in solidarity with Gaza shortly after the Israeli bombing began in October 2023. Since then, more than 2,000 people have been killed in Israeli attacks, which escalated dramatically after the IDF targeted the military group’s leadership in recent weeks.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu addressed the Lebanese people this week, urging them to “free your country from Hezbollah so that this war can end,” warning that failure to do so could mean Lebanon “falls into the abyss of a long war that will lead to destruction and suffering like we see in Gaza.”
Israeli officials have also advocated for devastating retaliatory strikes on Iran’s nuclear facilities and oil infrastructure after Tehran responded to the killings of Hamas and Hezbollah leaders with a barrage of missiles at Israel on October 1.
