PETALING JAYA: Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim says the “threats” he received over his criticism of the Israeli government following the war in Gaza were in the form of “statements” by European MPs.

“We will release a media statement about this,” Anwar told reporters after an event here.

“So, let’s not worry about that matter. We have work to do, and we will continue,” he said, when asked to elaborate on his revelation that he was threatened for his criticisms of Israel.

Last night, Anwar, while speaking about the threats at a rally in solidarity with the Palestinian people, said Malaysia would never waver from its support for Palestine.

Earlier this morning, PAS information chief Ahmad Fadhli Shaari also urged Anwar to reveal the nature of the threats and pressures that have arisen due to Malaysia’s stance on the conflict in Gaza.

Inspector-General of Police Razarudin Husain has announced that the police will beef up security for Anwar following his revelation of the threats.
