Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has ordered that his UN General Assembly speech be broadcast through Israeli army loudspeakers to the people of Gaza, as he faces accusations of war crimes and growing calls to end the conflict in the Strip. His annual address on the international community’s biggest platform is always closely watched. Last year dozens of delegates walked out of the assembly hall in protest as he said Israel was “winning” its wars in Gaza and Lebanon, while issuing threats over Iran’s involvement.
