Sour relations between Israel and United Nation leadership
Israel and the UN, among many other international organizations, have long been at variance. However, since Israel began its ceaseless assault in Gaza on October 7, in response to Hamas attacks on southern Israel, ties between the state and the international organization have reached a new low.
In the piece he wrote, Katz said that the UN head was backing “Hezbollah, the Houthis, and Iran,” which he referred to as “the mothership of global terror,” and had failed to condemn “the massacre and sexual atrocities committed by Hamas murderers on October 7.”
While Israel shifted its primary attention to Hezbollah and the conflict erupted into Lebanon late last month, Guterres expressed his “grave alarm” at the increasingly worsening circumstances and “the large number of civilian casualties.”
