welcome

Hamas welcomed the issuance of the warrants against the Israeli officials, without mentioning the one against Deif.

Paul Fleming, general secretary of arts union Equity, agreed that new opera productions and engagement programmes in Manchester were welcome, but said "it falls short of a season at the scale audiences deserve".

Mrs. Tarter knew this and still welcomed us with open arms because she knew we were no match for her.

Hamas has welcomed the decision, without commenting on the issuing of a warrant for its own military commander, Mohammed Deif.

Hamas welcomed the warrants for Netanyahu and Gallant, saying that it “constitutes an important historical precedent, and a correction to a long path of historical injustice against our people”.
