Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu criticized the United Nations General Assembly resolution for a "humanitarian truce" in the Israel-Gaza conflict as "deeply flawed." Expressing disappointment over India's abstention, he lamented that even many of Israel's friends did not insist on a powerful condemnation of the Hamas attacks. The resolution, adopted with 120 votes in favor, called for an immediate ceasefire and protection of civilians. India, along with 44 other nations, abstained from the vote. The ongoing conflict has led to a significant humanitarian crisis, with Israeli forces continuing airstrikes and ground operations in Gaza, forcing hundreds of thousands to evacuate.
