Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu faced strong protests at the United Nations General Assembly in New York on Friday. As he began his speech, dozens of delegates walked out, showing their disagreement with his remarks on Palestinian recognition, while some in the hall applauded him. Netanyahu called recognition of a Palestinian state “sheer madness” and “disgraceful,” insisting Israel would never accept it. He addressed hostages held by Hamas, saying they were not forgotten, and mentioned that his speech was broadcast into Gaza. The walkouts highlight growing international frustration over Israel’s actions in the West Bank and Gaza.
