Netanyahu defended his nation's response to the Oct. 7 attacks by Hamas that triggered an Israeli military operation that has devastated the Gaza Strip.
Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu addresses the 79th United Nations General Assembly at U.N. headquarters in New York, U.S., September 27, 2024.
Netanyahu, armed with visual aids as he has been in the past, defended his nation's response to the Oct. 7, 2023, attacks by Hamas on Israel that triggered an Israeli military operation that has devastated the Gaza Strip. He said he traveled to the United Nations to refute the untruths he had heard from other leaders on the same rostrum earlier in the week.
Palestinians look at the destruction following Israeli airstrikes in the humanitarian zone, known as Mawasi, in Khan Younis, southern Gaza, on Tuesday, Sept. 10, 2024. Israel said its jets struck Hamas terrorists in a command and control center inside a humanitarian zone in Gaza, but Hamas denied that it had fighters in the area and said dozens of people were killed in the attack that struck tents housing displaced people.
The United Nations says over 90,000 people have been displaced by five days of Israeli strikes on Lebanon, bringing the total to 200,000 people who have been displaced in Lebanon since Hezbollah began firing rockets into northern Israel in support of Hamas after it stormed into Israel, sparking the Israel-Hamas war.
