Following Channel 14's expose of an Italian hotel that canceled Israeli tourists' reservations over alleged "genocide" claims, Italian government officials and media outlets have launched an investigation.
The controversy, first revealed last night (Wednesday) on Boaz Golan's 'Night News' broadcast on Channel 14, has prompted:
- Immediate response from Italian government authorities
- Coverage across Italian media outlets
- Intervention from Israel's Foreign Ministry
- Direct communication with Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni
Former Israeli Ambassador to Rome Dror Eydar has actively engaged with Italian leadership and media representatives to address the incident.
In addition, Italian authorities have promised comprehensive action to address what appears to be discriminatory practices against Israeli tourists.
