They booed Netanyahu during his speech at the UN General Assembly
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's address to the UN General Assembly was again marked this year by the exit of numerous representatives from the hall when the leader took the floor.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's speech at the UN General Assembly was again marked by the departure of many representatives from the room. Before speaking, Netanyahu said "If there are more moral cowards who want to leave the room, let them do so now". His supporters in the audience wore kippahs and Israeli flags on their lapels, and some chanted slogans in his support, including "Bibi, you are the light of this room".
Protests against Netanyahu's presence in New York City took place at various locations, and the city's mayor, Zohran Mamdani, called for the execution of an arrest warrant issued against Netanyahu by the International Criminal Court.
