Israel Katz, the Israeli foreign minister, accused the UN secretary general, António Guterres, of “leading an extreme anti-Israel and anti-Jewish agenda”.

“Guterres did not welcome the elimination of arch-terrorist Yahya Sinwar, just as he refused to declare Hamas a terrorist organisation after the October 7th massacre,” he said in a post on X. “We will continue to designate him as persona non grata and bar his entry to Israel.”

Guterres had issued a brief statement after the missile attack condemning “the broadening of the Middle East conflict, with escalation after escalation”, but Katz said this did not go far enough.

    “leading an extreme anti-Israel and anti-Jewish agenda”.

    Being jewish isn’t a political entity, Israel is. Israel is an out of control rogue state who are engaged in a genocide and land grab.
