Israel Declares UN Chief 'Persona Non Grata'

Israel's foreign minister has barred the United Nations secretary-general, Antonio Guterres, from entering the country, claiming bias against Israel. This action further deepens the divide between Israel and the UN.

In a significant diplomatic move, Israel's Foreign Minister, Israel Katz, announced on Wednesday that he is barring the United Nations Secretary-General, Antonio Guterres, from entering Israel. Katz accused the UN chief of being biased against the country.

The foreign minister declared Guterres 'persona non grata,' effectively preventing him from crossing Israeli borders.

This decision escalates the already tense relations between Israel and the United Nations, marking a new low in their diplomatic ties.
