Slovenia's nationalist Prime Minister Janez Jansa opened Israel's first embassy in Ljubljana, resetting bilateral ties and sparking protests by thousands as well as an impeachment bid against him. Speaking at the embassy opening, Israeli Foreign Minister Gideon Sa'ar said Israel has no plans 'to expel or to deport' Palestinians from Gaza, stating that those who wish to leave the war-torn territory may do so but no one will be forced out. The embassy opening highlights divisions in Europe over ties with Israel amid the ongoing Gaza war, drawing both diplomatic significance and public backlash.
