Middle East 1 source 1 country 🔦 Under-reported 51m ago

The Pacific island nation of Nauru has announced plans to open an embassy in Jerusalem, becoming the tenth country to establish a diplomatic mission in the city. The move follows Nauru’s 2019 decision to formally recognize Jerusalem as the capital of Israel.

Nauru, a nation with a population of approximately 12,000, has maintained a consistently pro-Israel diplomatic stance. The decision to open the embassy follows recent bilateral engagement, including a meeting between Israeli Foreign Minister Gideon Sa'ar and his Nauruan counterpart in Fiji last June.
