Israel recognizes Armenian genocide amid tensions with Turkey
Israel’s government unanimously recognized the Armenian genocide, citing Turkey’s historical denial. The move comes amid deteriorating relations with Turkey, which has accused Israel of genocide in Gaza. Over 30 nations, including France and the U.S., have also recognized the Armenian genocide, which resulted in 1.5 million Armenian deaths between 1915 and 1923.
