Israel has made it clear countless of times that it doesn’t like the United Nations for speaking the truth on Palestine.
This time Israeli Foreign Minister Yisrael Katz declared, Wednesday, UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres a not “wanted person in Israel”, and banned him from entering the country. Why? Katz is now claiming Guterres has not “clearly” condemned the Iranian missile attack on Israel, Tuesday night.
In an Israeli Foreign Ministry statement Katz said “anyone who cannot unequivocally condemn the Iranian criminal attack on Israel is not fit to set foot on Israeli soil.”
Katz goes further saying “this Secretary General who hates Israel, who provides support to terrorists, rapists and murderers, will remain in memory as a disgrace in the history of the United Nations,” according to Al Jazeera.
Katz’s decision was based on the fact as he claims the UN Secretary-General “did not mention the name of Iran and did not condemn it in any way, and did not categorically condemn its dangerous aggression.”
Katz also alleged that Guterres’s comment on the Iranian attack is part of his “continuation of his anti-Israel policy since the beginning of the war”, stressing the UN Secretary-General did not make any initiatives to “declare Hamas, Hezbollah and the Houthis terrorist organizations”.
Tuesday evening Iran fired about 180 ballistic missiles at Israel, causing human casualties and material damage and closing the airspace, while millions of Israelis rushed to underground shelters as sirens blasted all over Israel.

Israeli media sources reported on Tuesday evening, citing military sources, that Israel “will respond strongly” to the Iranian attack on multiple Israeli military targets. Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) further vowed that Israel will face “crushing” attacks if it responds to the missile barrage.
Earlier Tuesday, Iran launched dozens of ballistic missiles against Israeli important security and military targets, stating that, “the operation was based on a decision from the Supreme National Security Council and with the support of the army.”

Iran’s defense minister says the Islamic Republic’s recent retaliatory operation against the Israeli regime, dubbed Operation True Promise II, has been more than 90% successful.
Brigadier General Aziz Nasirzadeh made the remarks, Wednesday, after Iran launched a barrage of long-range ballistic missiles towards the Israeli occupied territories, in response to the assassination of top resistance leaders, Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah and Ismail Haniyeh, and Abbas Nilforoushan, a senior IRGC commander, by the Zionist regime as reported by Iran’s Press TV.
“Operation True Promise II was carried out with more than 90% success and was fully in line with international law,” Nasirzadeh said.

CROSSFIREARABIA – Iran has attacked Israel with ballistic missiles, Tuesday, evening. It was a massive attack coming from different locations in Iran launching missiles that hit Israel at point-blank.
The ballistic missiles argued to be made in two rounds, no more than five minutes within each other, amounted up to 250, although different media sources like Al Jazeera settled on 180 ballistic missiles that directly came across from Iran.
In a preliminary statement, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRCG) said the attack was in response to the assassination of Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh, Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah, and IRGC Commander Abbas Nilforoshan according to Anadolu.
The social media has been going crazy with commentary and images of the missiles coming in droves over Israel in a first-time development and hit different cities and strategic locations in Israel like Tel Aviv, Ashkelon and the Negev desert.
The Israeli army has been telling its citizens, all-day Tuesday, to stay in or near underground shelters because of the missiles, namely Fadi 4 rockets that were being fired by Hezbollah operatives from across the border.
Just before the blasts media outlets were saying that US intelligence sources were conveying to the Israelis than an attack from Iran was imminent and to be prepared for.
When the massive attack happened however, it was surprise jolts, coming over the Jordan night skies where it was visibly seen and heard.
“This operation is our legal right to defend ourselves,” the Revolutionary Guard pointed out in its statement. Iran’s mission to the United Nations stated that “If Israel dares to retaliate or commits malicious acts, our response will be devastating,” as reported by the Quds News Network.
