Hamas urges the “friendly state” of the United Arab Emirates, host nation of the UN Climate Change Conference COP28, to withdraw its invitation to Israeli President Isaac Herzog.
In a statement, Hamas says that “irrespective of the conference’s nature,” the international community and the UN should not afford “criminal” Herzog a platform, arguing that there is a “political and moral imperative to boycott him” because of his involvement in the war against the terror group in Gaza.
