Israeli UN Representative Raises Hamas Leader’s Phone Number in UN Session, Rejecting Gaza Ceasefire Resolution

Al-Marsad newspaper: The Israeli representative to the United Nations, Gilad Erdan, raised a banner bearing the phone number of the leader of Hamas in the Gaza Strip, Yahya Sinwar, during a session of the United Nations General Assembly on Tuesday evening.

A ceasefire session in Gaza

The United Nations General Assembly devoted the session to voting on a non-binding resolution calling for an immediate ceasefire in the Gaza Strip.

During the session, 153 countries supported the resolution, 10 opposed it, and 23 countries abstained from voting.

The Israeli delegate rejects the decision

Gilad Erdan rejected the ceasefire decision in Gaza, describing it as “hypocrisy” and saying that it would only lead to “prolonging death and destruction in the region” without explaining how it would lead to that. He considered that the current ceasefire would lead to “ensuring the survival of Hamas.”

Sinwar phone number

He said that if UN members “want a real ceasefire, they should contact the Hamas office in Gaza.”

He raised a small white banner, with a number written on it that he said belonged to Yahya Al-Sinwar, in addition to a picture of himself.

He addressed my delegates to the countries: “Contact Hamas and call on it to put down its weapons, surrender themselves, and release the detainees. This will bring about a permanent ceasefire.”
