Israel’s envoy to the United Nations on Tuesday lambasted the speech by the body’s Secretary-General Antonio Guterres regarding the Hamas massacre.
“It is important to also recognize the attacks by Hamas did not happen in a vacuum,” Guterres said. “The Palestinian people have been subjected to 56 years of suffocating occupation. They have seen their land steadily devoured by settlements and plagued by violence; their economy stifled; their people displaced and their homes demolished. Their hopes for a political solution to their plight have been vanishing.”
