00:00Israel has officially declared the UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres as a person non-creta, barring
00:24him from entering the country.
00:27This move comes after Guterres failed to explicitly condemn Iran's recent missile attack on Israel,
00:34which followed the killing of senior Hezbollah commander and Hamas leaders.
00:40Israel's foreign ministry issued a statement on social media, criticizing Guterres for
00:45not joining the global community in condemning Iran's actions.
00:50The foreign ministry further criticized the UN Secretary-General for his silence on the
00:54atrocities committed by Hamas during the October 7 attack, which also included a massacre
01:00and sexual violence against civilians.
01:04The statement also condemned Guterres for failing to declare Hamas a terror organization,
01:09adding that his perceived leniency toward groups like Hamas, Hezbollah and the Houthis
01:14and now Iran has strained the reputation of the UN.
01:19The post stressed that Israel will continue to defend the civilians and preserve its dignity
01:25regardless of Guterres' stance.
01:27It also implied that Guterres' actions show support for what Israel described as terrorists
01:32and murderers operating under the banner of groups like Hamas and Iran, which it called
01:38the mothership of global terror.
01:40The background to this diplomatic fallout stemmed from Iran's large-scale missile attack
01:45on Israel, marking the second such attack in seven months.
01:50Iran launched the attack in retaliation for the assassination of top Hezbollah and Hamas
01:55leaders, escalating the already tense situation in the Middle East.
02:00While much of the international community, from U.S. President Joe Biden to Georgia Maloney
02:04of Italy condemned Iran's actions, Guterres' perceived lack of an explicit stance against
02:10the missile strike appears to have further strained relations between Israel and UN.
02:16This bold move by Israel to declare the head of the UN unwelcome marks a significant diplomatic
02:21development reflecting the deepening division over the ongoing war in the Middle East.
