Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has arrived in the US ahead of his address to the UN General Assembly. His speech is expected to be highly critical of those who have accused him of wrongdoing.
According to Middle East Eye, Netanyahu is likely to directly address New York Mayor Eric Adams, who has described Netanyahu as "the architect of a horrific genocide against Palestinians". Netanyahu has accused the mayor of supporting Hamas fighters, a claim Middle East Eye did not verify.
Netanyahu's speech is being seen by some as a campaign address, with Israel's elections approaching. Some commentators, including former Israeli Ambassador Michael Oren, believe Netanyahu is using the speech to appeal to the Israeli public rather than the UN.
