Madrid: Spain permanently withdrew its ambassador to Israel on Tuesday as a diplomatic standoff worsened between ⁠the two countries over Spain's opposition to the ⁠US-Israeli attacks on Iran.

The ambassador ‌was summoned ​back to Spain last September amid a diplomatic row over Spanish measures banning aircraft and ships carrying weapons to Israel from ​its ports or ⁠airspace due to Israel's military offensive in Gaza, which Israeli Foreign Minister Gideon Sa'ar denounced as antisemitic.
