Israeli Ambassador to the UN Gilad Erdan slams UN special coordinator on the Middle East Tor Wennesland for meeting with the foreign minister of Iran.
“Don’t forget to wash the blood of Israeli babies off your hands after that handshake,” says Erdan, sharing a photo of Wennesland shaking hands with Iranian Foreign Minister Hossein Amir-Abdollahian earlier today.
“Tor Wennesland not only met with the Iranian regime’s FM, but didn’t even bother condemning Iran for its role in the massacre of Israeli women and children,” writes Erdan on X. “It’s no secret that Hamas terrorists are openly praising Iran for funding, arming, and training them.”
“The UN’s support for and legitimization of genocidal terrorists is a threat to civilization!” he adds.
