‘Shame on You’: Israeli Envoy Shreds UN Charter Supporting Palestine | Watch video

Israeli Ambassador Gilad Erdan made a dramatic statement at the United Nations General Assembly by tearing up the UN Charter in protest just before the assembly passed a resolution supporting full membership for Palestine. The resolution, which received overwhelming support with 143 votes in favour, asked the Security Council to grant full membership to Palestine, currently holding observer status at the UN. Twenty-five countries abstained from the vote, while nine, including the United States and Israel, voted against it. Erdan criticised the resolution as a "clear violation" of the UN Charter and accused it of circumventing the US veto in the Security Council. He described his actions as a symbolic reflection of the assembly's disregard for the principles outlined in the UN Charter. #IsraeliEnvoyShredsUNCharter #UNCharterShred #Israel #Palestine #UN #UNGA #SecurityCouncil #Resolution #FullMembership #IsraeliEnvoy #GiladErdan #ShameOnYou #Conflict #MiddleEast #Diplomacy #InternationalRelations #PeaceEfforts ~HT.99~PR.152~ED.155~
