Dozens of delegates walked out during Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's address at the 81st United Nations General Assembly in New York, following encouragement from the Palestinian Mission to the UN. As Netanyahu spoke, he referred to those departing as "phony human rights protesters" and accused them of moral cowardice.
The walkout was reportedly due to Netanyahu's critical statements about Palestine, including accusations that Palestinians were attempting to silence him. Among those who walked out, multiple countries were identified, including Saudi Arabia, Sudan, Tunisia, Uzbekistan, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, Algeria, Iran, Malaysia, Montenegro, Kyrgyzstan, Jordan, Libya, the Marshall Islands, and Mauritius.
