South Africa and Chad have announced they will recall diplomats from Israel for “consultation” in response to the Israel-Hamas war.

"The South African government has decided to withdraw all of its diplomats in Tel Aviv for consultation,” minister Khumbudzo Ntshavheni said on Monday in a news conference to announce the outcome of a cabinet meeting held on November 1. The South African government told CNN there are three diplomats in Israel to be recalled.

“Cabinet has also noted the continuing disparaging remarks of the Israeli ambassador to South Africa about those who are opposing the atrocities and the genocide of the Israeli government," Ntshavheni said, adding that the ambassador's role “is becoming very untenable."

"A genocide under the watch of the international community cannot be tolerated,” Ntshavheni said during the briefing.
