Israeli Delegation Walks Out of UNGA During Erdogan's Speech
The Israeli delegation to the United Nations in New York, led by envoy Danny Danon, walked out of the General Assembly hall during a speech by Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan. Erdogan's address focused on the situation in the Gaza Strip, settler violence in the West Bank, and restrictions on access to holy sites in Jerusalem. He stated, "The world is facing a genocide mentality that is not content with killing." The Turkish president also criticized the barring of Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas from participating in the UN General Assembly, calling it "injustice" and urging global recognition of a Palestinian state. In contrast, the Palestinian delegation applauded Erdogan's remarks. The Israeli diplomats stood and exited the hall as Erdogan spoke from the podium.
