Story summary

Benjamin Netanyahu, Israel's prime minister, addressed the UN General Assembly on September 24, despite being wanted by the International Criminal Court (ICC) for alleged war crimes. Palestinian president Mahmoud Abbas was denied a visa to attend, drawing criticism and leading to a mass walkout of delegates when Netanyahu took the podium. This event highlighted ongoing tensions over Israel's actions in Gaza and Iran, with some nations expressing support for accountability under international law while others defended Netanyahu's stance. The incident underscored divisions within the global community regarding responses to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and criticisms of ICC's authority faced by Washington and Tel Aviv.
