Sources reported that Gil Artzyeli, Israel’s new ambassador to Chile, was at the presidential palace waiting to present his credentials, but he was told to leave

According to sources, Boric was reportedly angered by Israel’s killing of a 17-year-child in the occupied West Bank city of Jenin, so he canceled the ceremony.
