Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu addresses the UN General Assembly and says his decision to attack Iran was “one of the easiest” he has ever made. According to reports, delegates walk out as he takes the podium to speak.
PBS and The Independent both describe Netanyahu characterizing the decision as straightforward and denouncing the walkout. PBS adds that he calls those who left the chamber “moral cowards.” The Independent frames the dispute more broadly around his UN remarks about Iran. Neither outlet details the specific charges behind the walkout beyond the reported act of delegates leaving when he began his address, and both focus on his comments as the central development of the session.
