Israel’s ambassador to the UN, Gilad Erdan, spoke in anger before the vote, telling the General Assembly that: “As long as so many of you are ‘Jew-hating’, you don’t really care that the Palestinians are not ‘peace-loving’.

He accused the assembly of tearing apart the UN charter. He then used a shredder to destroy a copy of the charter at the lectern.

"You are shredding the UN charter" says Israeli Ambassador to the United Nations Gilad Erdan. Picture: Charly TRIBALLEAU /

“These are populations that are already on the brink of famine who are now being subjected to a medieval siege coupled with scorched earth and heavy bombardment. Already desperate conditions will get worse and we will see multitudes of casualties. Not just from the bombing. But the hunger, the disease and the starvation.”
