Israel Katz issues a directive to all of Israel's emissaries abroad reaffirming Israel's rejection of international decrees regarding a unilateral decision to found a Palestinian statehood.

The current climate bill was deemed “shameful” by environmental activists, many of whom said it could worsen the climate change situation in Israel.

Several of the Likud members who received diplomatic passports through the directive are noted allies of Eli Cohen and would likely be key figures if he entered into primaries for Likud leadership.

Foreign Minister Eli Cohen said that UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres’ actions “constitute support of the Hamas terrorist organization."

He took issue with her position concerning Hamas’s October 7 infiltration of southern Israel, where it killed over 1,200 people and seized some 250 hostages.

“From a diplomatic point of view, we recognize that pressure has begun to bear on Israel. The pressure is not very high [now], but it is increasing,” Cohen said.

Israeli Foreign Minister Eli Cohen called for a united front against Palestinian terror and its funding sources while meeting German Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock.

Israel's ambassador to the UN Gilad Erdan called for Guterres to resign and reissued that call against him on Wednesday after Guterres’ statement.
