Israel reprimands Spanish ambassador for prime minister's comments on Gaza

Israel summoned Spain's ambassador to Tel Aviv for a reprimand after Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez questioned whether Israel was respecting international humanitarian law in Gaza. 

On Thursday, Sanchez told Spanish state-owned broadcaster TVE: "The footage we are seeing and the growing numbers of children dying, I have serious doubt [Israel] is complying with international humanitarian law."

He added: "What we are seeing in Gaza is not acceptable."
