Israel Calls For The Resignation Of The UN Secretary General Over Remarks On The Gaza War

 

BBC: Israel demands UN chief resign over Hamas attack comments 

Israel has reacted angrily to comments made by the UN secretary general about the Gaza war at the Security Council. António Guterres said on Tuesday that he condemned unequivocally Hamas's deadly attacks in Israel two weeks ago but that it was important to recognise they "did not happen in a vacuum". 

Israeli ambassador Gilad Erdan accused him of "justifying terrorism" and demanded his immediate resignation. On Wednesday, Mr Guterres rejected "misrepresentations" of his statement. 

"I am shocked by the misrepresentations by some of my statement yesterday in the Security Council as if, as if I was justifying acts of terror by Hamas," he said. "This is false. It was the opposite."
