WASHINGTON (TNND) — Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Thursday defended Elon Musk amid accusations of the X owner making a Nazi salute earlier this week.

"It looked really bad to a lot of us in the Jewish community. And it was being celebrated by white nationalist groups," said Tyler Gregory, CEO of San Francisco's Jewish Community Relations Council.
Trump's claim met with widespread criticism and dismissal from relief agencies and experts, who pointed out that he provided no evidence to support his assertion.
Branko Grims, a Slovenian member of the European Parliament, cited Musk's "support for the fundamental human right of freedom of speech."
