Dozens of delegations walked out as Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu took the General Assembly podium, and he called those leaving "moral cowards." He said Israel and the United States had crushed Iran's army, navy, air force and nuclear facilities, thanked President Trump and said Israel would continue to defend itself.

Why it matters

The walkout showed Israel's isolation at the assembly in the same week Washington and Tehran were testing terms to reopen Hormuz, and Iranian diplomats used it to press their case against the war.
