Israel is denying visas for United Nations officials after the secretary-general remarked that the Hamas terror attacks 'did not happen in a vacuum.':
Tensions between Israel and the United Nations are heightened after a series of comments about Hamas led to U.N. visas being denied. U.N. Secretary-General António Guterres said Tuesday during a meeting of the Security Council the terrorist attacks against Israel Oct. 7 'did not happen in a vacuum.' Supporters of Israel took offense to the assertion, and critics claimed the U.N. was blaming the Jewish state for the slaughter of its own civilians by Hamas.

NETANYAHU SPOKESWOMAN CALLS OUT UN SECRETARY-GENERAL FOR ‘MIND-BOGGLING’ REMARKS: ‘THIS IS INSANITY’ Erdan, who described Guterres’ remarks as 'shocking' before calling for his resignation, doubled down Wednesday on his call for Guterres to step down.
