Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's spokesman Ophir Gendelman did not like the refusal of an Egyptian judo player to shake hands with his Israeli opponent in the semi-finals of the world championships in Tokyo.

"Israeli judo player Sagi Moki beat Egyptian player Mohamed Abdel Aal in the semi-finals of the World Cup. Sagi wanted to shake hands with Mohammed at the end of the match, but the latter escaped the rug. There is peace between the two countries. Before the Egyptian is nothing but an insult to Egypt's reputation in world sport. "

Mockey won the 81kg gold medal by beating Belgian Mathias Kass in the final.

Gendelman enclosed the tweet with a video of the Egyptian player's refusal to shake hands with his Israeli rival.

Attacking comments by Netanyahu's spokesman, she described the peace between the parties as "political" and that "your hands are stained with blood."

In a political peace only and there will be no human peace with the people and the Zionist state usurped the land and the rights of the Palestinians. Our player is an authentic Egyptian champion in sports heroism is a moral hero and long live Egypt and long live the people of Egypt ...
