Israel rejects UN General Assembly declaration on two-state solution with Palestinians

"Once again, it has been proven how much the General Assembly is a political circus detached from reality," Israeli foreign ministry spokesperson Oren Marmorstein said in a post on X on Friday.

Israel rejected on Friday the United Nations General Assembly overwhelmingly voting to endorse a declaration outlining steps towards a two-state solution between Israel and the Palestinians.

"Once again, it has been proven how much the General Assembly is a political circus detached from reality: in the dozens of clauses of the declaration endorsed by this resolution, there is not a single mention that Hamas is a terrorist organization," Israeli foreign ministry spokesperson Oren Marmorstein said in a post on X on Friday.
