Israeli leader Benjamin Netanyahu used a speech at the United Nations to defend Israeli military actions in the Middle East, prompting dozens of delegates to leave the venue in protest as he took the podium.
The walkout marked a visible demonstration of opposition to Israel’s military conduct. The supplied account does not identify the delegations involved or specify which operations Netanyahu addressed in detail.
Netanyahu condemned those who left, describing them as “moral cowards”. His remarks positioned the speech as a defence of Israel’s actions amid opposition from representatives attending the UN.
The walkout and Netanyahu’s response were the main reactions described during the address. No further details about the speech, the delegates’ reasons for leaving or any subsequent developments are available in the supplied material.
