Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu launched a strong critique of Western countries at the United Nations for recognizing Palestinian statehood, asserting Israel's position against a Palestinian state amid increasing international isolation over its Gaza conflict.

Netanyahu addressed delegates at the U.N. General Assembly, rebuking allegations of war crimes and countering accusations of genocide in Gaza. The Prime Minister's speech comes as key allies like France, Britain, Canada, and Australia have endorsed Palestinian independence, intensifying diplomatic tensions.
