UN Delegates Stage Mass Walkout During Netanyahu Address

 


Dozens of United Nations delegates staged a dramatic walkout during Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s address on Thursday, underscoring deep divisions over Israel’s policies in Gaza and the occupied territories.


The protest unfolded at the UN General Assembly in New York, where Netanyahu sought to defend Israel’s military actions and outline his government’s stance on regional security. As he began speaking, a coalition of diplomats rose from their seats and filed out in silence, leaving rows of empty chairs in their wake.


Observers described the walkout as one of the most visible acts of defiance against Israel’s leadership on the global stage in recent months. Delegates who left the chamber later accused Netanyahu of using “inflammatory rhetoric” and ignoring the humanitarian toll of the conflict.


Netanyahu, appearing unfazed, pressed on with his speech. He insisted that Israel’s actions were aimed at defending its citizens and countering what he called “terrorist threats.” He also reiterated his rejection of international calls for a ceasefire, saying Israel would not be pressured into compromising its security.


The protest adds to mounting diplomatic tensions as global leaders weigh how to respond to the worsening crisis in the Middle East. Analysts say the walkout signals growing frustration among countries that believe Israel’s current path risks deepening instability across the region.

BREAKING: Esa-Oke Youths Reunite as Survivors, Caution Pelumi against revisionism

....we’re not your campaign slogan Once upon a glorious, chaotic 2017, practically every able-bodied youth in Esa-Oke held honorary title in the land: Personal Assistant to Barrister Pelumi Olajengbesi. No interviews. No pay. Just passion, blind loyalty, and the stamina to chase him from one campaign ground to the next like a political body double. From Comrade Mainframe to Comrade Swiss, from Yinka Oba to the humble football boys who carried cones like national flags, we were there. We were the movement. Until, of course. Now in 2025, Barrister Pelumi, clearly inspired by a Netflix political drama is on a media tour telling anyone who’ll listen that he "settled everyone who worked for him." Settled who, please? Maybe in his dreams or in the metaverse. In the real world, the story’s a bit different. Those of us from Obokun, who hustled day and night, got exactly zero: no thank you, no handshake. Take Sami, now a former Ward 7 councillor, no thanks from Pelumi. Folusho? Aregbe...

Assassination Attempt: Police can’t deny what’s on their desk, says Amotekun boss

  The Corps Commander of the Osun Amotekun Corps , High Chief Dr Hon. Adekunle Isaac Omoyele , who is currently receiving treatment at an undisclosed hospital following an attempted assassination on his life on Monday, has strongly refuted the claims made by the Osun State Police Spokeperson regarding the incident. Reacting to the statement by the Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO), who claimed that investigations had not commenced because the Commander had not provided evidence of the attack, the Amotekun boss expressed deep disappointment, labeling the police response as insensitive and misleading. "It is shocking that a police spokesperson would say there is no evidence of an attack when the Divisional Police Officer (DPO) of Ota-Efun Division — the nearest jurisdiction to the incident — was immediately informed," the Commander said. "Officers from that division visited the scene the same night, assessed the damage, evacuated the vehicle, and advised me to seek ...
