UN Convenes to Discuss Gaza Border Clashes without Israeli Envoy
(Ha'aretz) Noa Landau - The UN Security Council convened Friday night to discuss the events on the Gaza border, despite the U.S. and Israel's request to postpone deliberations due to the Passover holiday. No Israeli envoy was present during discussions. In a statement Saturday, Israel's ambassador to the UN Danny Danon called the move "underhanded opportunism" by the Palestinians, aimed to spread lies on the UN stage "while Jewish people across the world gather to celebrate Passover."
