Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu rejected allegations of genocide at a UN meeting and defended Israel's actions as a protection not only of itself but also of other countries, stating that the Hamas attacks in October 2023 were the worst massacre of Jews since the Holocaust, in which more than 1,200 people died, and that Israel subsequently launched a military operation in Gaza, where according to Palestinian sources, more than 73,000 people have since died, while the ceasefire does not yet address key issues of disarming Hamas and the withdrawal of Israel.
