Spain bars two far-right Israeli ministers

Spain on Tuesday said it was barring two far-right Israeli government ministers from entering the country, a day after announcing measures aimed at stopping what its leader called "the genocide in Gaza."

Israel's National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir and Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich would be sanctioned and "not be able to enter Spanish territory," Madrid's top diplomat Jose Manuel Albares told a press conference, the latest escalation in a growing row between the two countries.
