Terror groups are to blame for the suffering of the residents of the Gaza Strip, Jason Greenblatt said, adding that UNRWA has failed the Palestinian people.

Prior to a UN Security Council debate on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, a moment of silence was held in memory of synagogue shooting victim Lori Kaye.

'The struggle for freedom is the breath of life, and it ensures the existence of the Jewish people,' Danon stated.

While it may appear that the Palestinians are slowly managing to achieve their goal of full UN membership, the likelihood of this happening remains slim.

'UNESCO is manipulated by Israel’s enemies and continually singles out the Jewish state for condemnation,' said Israeli Ambassador Danny Danon.

'If Hezbollah dares to attack Israel, it will bring ruin to Lebanon,' Danon warned.

Addressing the UN on the 71st anniversary of the vote to recognize a Jewish state, Danon  set out three conditions that would lead to a new era in the region.

'A terrorist organization going to the UN for assistance is like a serial killer asking the police for assistance,' Israel's UN envoy said. 

Despite opposition from the Arab block, the vast majority of UN member states supported an Israeli resolution promoting entrepreneurship and development.

Israel's UN envoy urges Security Council to condemn the deadly rocket attacks on innocent civilians and to designate Hamas as a terrorist organization.

‎'Bolivia ‎tramples women’s rights and invites the head of an ‎anti-Israel group to speak at the UN, all while ‎talking about women’s rights and peace,' Danon said.

'UNESCO is a body based on lies and biases, and is deliberately acting against us,' Israel's ambassador to the UN charged.

Danon accused Corbyn of being 'an anti-Semite who wants to return Britain to darker periods in its history.'

The Rosh Hashana 'Tashlich' ceremony 'is an opportunity for the UN to look inward and conduct some soul-searching,' Danon stated.

'The US has done a very important thing by halting the financing for the refugee perpetuation agency known as UNRWA. It is finally beginning to resolve the problem,' Netanyahu stated.

'The victims of terror attacks, along with the uniformed soldiers who fell in defense of the country, have a place in our hearts; they will never fade from our memory,' said Ambassador Danon. 

Al-Hussein 'never missed a chance to invent falsehoods and lies when it comes to Israel,' Danon charged. 

The exhibit contains before and after photos of nature reserves, fields and agricultural lands hit by hundreds of arson weapons launched into Israel from Gaza.

Israel’s Agency for International Development believes in the power of cooperation, fraternity and mutual assistance, sending aid to the all corners of the world and helping train thousands of individuals in dozens of countries during its 60-plus years of existence.

Israel 'will continue to defend our citizens and our territory from any threat or violation of our sovereignty,' Danon told the UN.

'Today’s resolution explicitly condemned terrorists for the despicable double war crime of hiding behind women and children while attacking civilians,' Danon stated. 

'From Syria to Yemen, the Iranian regime sows violence and bloodshed throughout the region and supports terror in almost every country,' Danon said.

Netanyahu thanked the Americans for 'their courageous decision against the hypocrisy and the lies of the so-called UN Human Rights Council.'

The UN General Assembly rejected a US proposal to condemn Hamas and accepted a Palestinian initiative to censure Israel.

In an unprecedented vote, the UN backed a US amendment denouncing Hamas attacks on Israel but then blocked it on a technicality. However, it was swift to condemn Israel for defending itself.
