US EditionIsrael’s Netanyahu to address UN as pressure mounts over Gaza war
Netanyahu broadcasts his UN speech into Gaza as Israel faces mounting international isolation and over 65,000 Palestinians killed in the conflict, according to local health officials.
- On September 25, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu traveled to New York to deliver a speech at the United Nations General Assembly and hold a meeting with President Trump.
- His visit follows intensified diplomacy and a 21-point peace plan by Trump, amid growing international recognition of a Palestinian state and rising pressure to end the Gaza war.
- Netanyahu will condemn the recognition of Palestine as a disgraceful concession and assert that Israel will prevent the formation of a Palestinian state, emphasizing the importance of asserting sovereignty over Judea and Samaria to put an end to Palestinian statehood aspirations.
- The visit also faces international legal pressure, as countries like Spain and Portugal intend to enforce an ICC arrest warrant accusing Netanyahu of war crimes related to Gaza events from October 2023 to May 2024.
- Netanyahu’s meetings and address are expected to shape the conflict’s next phase, focusing on completing war objectives and rejecting concessions that recognize a Palestinian state.
