Antonio Guterres says he was left “shocked” by the “misrepresentations” of his remarks regarding Hamas made on Tuesday during a meeting of the UN Security Council.
“I am shocked by the misrepresentations by some of my statement … as if I was justifying acts of terror by Hamas. This is false. It was the opposite,” the UN chief told reporters.
“I believe it’s necessary to set the record straight – especially out of respect for the victims and their families.”

Truth is painful all the time 😂😂😂
This power hungry israel want that everyone will speak in her favour after committing genocide in gaza.shameless people

A blunt statement made by UN Secretary General . If such statement made to justify terror attack ，it could be an encouragement for any terror attack especially Islamic terrorism world wide .This secretary is a nut .
Like chinese and russian diplomats, saying something yesterday, saying another thing today. Pathetic!
Israel want organise new UN cos threaten old UN chief to resign.
You are a disgrace to the civilized world. Resign you Hamas parroting pig. 🇨🇦🇨🇦🤠
What about the hundreds of thousands of Palestinian victims for the past 70 years???
The secretary general as the right to tell Israel,,,,,,what they are doing is out of proportion and they are not above the international law…..nor the law of Almighty jah
The arrogance of the Israel government as clearly shown that they are above the United nations,,,,Assembled
it’s time for hypocrisy to be stopped and the world leaders to stand up for what is right on behalf of the human community
Adeus.

Poor guy, I feel sorry for him. Bullying in his workplace and threats by Israel. He is frightened for his own life and his family who they would have also threatened. The Beast that deceives the nation’s is hard at work. I just watched an interview with Hamas spokesperson on Al-Jazeera.
Thankyou Osama for your clear objectives and strength through these very troubling events that have occured to your people. Rest assured that the world is with you regardless of their faith. Your eloquence in your delivery is remarkable and it is a pleasure to listen to unscripted facts of the Palestinian plight for liberty from the Israeli government oppression and cruelty. I am convinced that Netanyahu and collaborators are the Beast that has been unleashed to deceive the nations. May God continue to give you strength and life until your final breath. ❤️☮️🙏
