Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has attacked the recognition of a Palestinian state by multiple Western countries during a combative speech at the UN General Assembly.
Netanyahu labelled the recognition moves a “mark of shame” that sent the message “murdering Jews pays off”.
Dozens of officials and diplomats staged a walk-out as he took to the podium, leaving large parts of the conference hall empty. Outside, protesters against Israel’s war in Gaza gathered in Times Square.
"the United Nations is a house of darkness… a swamp of antisemitic bile… It is an anti-Semitic Flat Earth Society"
