Netanyahu speaks at UN amid global tensions
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu delivered a speech before the United Nations General Assembly in New York, amid widespread international isolation and declining global support for Israel due to its war in Gaza. His speech was attended by a nearly empty hall, as many country delegations withdrew in protest against accusations that Israel committed war crimes and crimes against humanity in Gaza. Protests were also raised by Palestinian, European, and Jewish organizations opposing Israel, rejecting the war and expressing solidarity with the Palestinians. During his speech, Netanyahu defended the military operations in Gaza and the West Bank, accusing some countries of excessively criticizing Israel, while most of his remarks focused on trying to sway Israeli voters ahead of the upcoming elections in October 2024. This comes amid increasing international anger at Israel's military policies toward Palestinians and calls from some U.S. states for international arrest warrants against Netanyahu.
