Israeli Foreign Minister Israel Katz has declared UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres 'persona non grata', criticizing him for not condemning Iran's missile attacks on Israel.
Katz accused Guterres of backing 'terrorists, rapists, and murderers', asserting that failure to unequivocally condemn Iran's attack disqualified him from visiting Israel.
In a statement, Guterres condemned the escalating violence, saying 'we absolutely need a ceasefire', but did not directly address Iran's actions.
Israel has voiced historic frustration with the UN, especially following its intensifying conflict in Gaza, marking a notable decline in relations.
