At the recent UN General Assembly session, a significant number of international delegations staged a protest by walking out of or missing Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s address. The mass exodus was driven by opposition to Israel’s ongoing military campaign in Gaza.
Observers noted several visibly empty seats throughout the event, providing a clear indication of the scale of diplomatic dissatisfaction. While some countries left during the speech, others chose to be absent altogether. Despite the widespread walkouts, a number of delegations remained in the hall for the duration of the address.
The incident underscores the deepening divisions within the international community regarding the conflict in Gaza, with a growing number of nations choosing to distance themselves from Israeli leadership at the global forum.
