Arab Nations Condemn Israeli Strikes; Israel Blames Hamas

On August 6, 2026, Arab and Islamic nations, including Egypt, strongly condemned ongoing Israeli military strikes in Gaza, while Israel blamed Hamas for the escalation. The condemnations were echoed by regional states and reported by IRNA. In the U.S., Senator John Fetterman rejected genocide claims against Israel, saying he would rather lose voters than abandon the country. Meanwhile, Israeli activist Moshe Feiglin controversially stated that Gaza residents face either expulsion or death by thirst. Separately, pharmaceutical company Teva sought to keep its Israel ties from a jury, citing the Gaza war as a reason.
