Abstract:

Hamas’ 7 October attack on Israel and the country’s subsequent military intervention in the Gaza Strip have led to differing reactions among the countries of the Global South, despite their traditional sympathy for the Palestinians. In the first days of the crisis, the scale of solidarity with Israel was unexpectedly high, but it gave way to pro-Palestinian sentiment in response to the Israeli attacks on Gaza. The escalation of the conflict and the support of the U.S. and European countries for Israel may contribute to a deterioration of their credibility in many developing countries. Accusations of double standards in applying international law may lead to a weakening of global sympathy for Ukraine in its fight against Russian aggression.
