Thousands of pro-Palestine demonstrators gathered Wednesday outside Slovenia's first Israeli embassy in the capital Ljubljana, the Shehab Wire reported. The protest erupted as Israeli Foreign Minister Gideon Sa'ar arrived to formally inaugurate the diplomatic mission.
The rally marked a show of opposition to the embassy's establishment at a moment of high tension in the region. Demonstrators called for the closure of the newly opened mission.
