In an unprecedented diplomatic move, Israeli Foreign Minister Israel Katz has declared UN Secretary-General António Guterres persona non grata and banned him from entering Israel. Katz accused Guterres of anti-Israel bias, calling him a 'hater' of Israel and accusing him of supporting 'terrorists, rapists, and murderers.' He stated, 'Anyone who cannot unequivocally condemn Iran's heinous attack on Israel does not deserve to set foot on Israeli soil.' Katz further remarked that Guterres will be remembered as a 'stain on the history of the United Nations.'
