US Secretary of State Marco Rubio is imposing sanctions on Francesca Albanese, the UN special rapporteur on human rights in the Palestinian territories, over her efforts to have the International Criminal Court take action against US and Israeli officials, companies, and executives.

“Albanese’s campaign of political and economic warfare against the United States and Israel will no longer be tolerated,” Rubio said Wednesday in a post on X/Twitter.

"The U.N. has violated its mandate—UNIFIL's time is up,” Israel’s U.N. Ambassador Danny Danon told JNS.

(Oct. 30, 2025 / JNS)  Danny Danon, the Israeli ambassador to the United Nations, accused the U.N. Interim Force in Lebanon of violating its mission on Thursday after it shot down an Israeli drone.

Danon told JNS exclusively that a letter sent on Monday from Jean-Pierre Lacroix, the U.N. under-secretary-general for peace operations, about the UNIFIL shootdown of the drone was “an admission of violating the mandate given to it by the Security Council, and is a violation of Resolution 1701.”

From a ‘Ring of Fire’ to a ‘Ring of Hope’

Israel’s military triumphs now pave the way for a historic opportunity to shift from defense to dialogue.

(July 1, 2025 / JNS)  In 20 months, Israel has executed a string of extraordinary military operations that have fundamentally altered the strategic landscape of the Middle East.

With remarkable precision, its defense forces have decapitated terrorist leadership networks within Hamas and Hezbollah, weakened Houthi rebels in Yemen and, most significantly, launched a covert pre-emptive strike deep inside Iran, “Operation Rising Lion,” that, together with the United States that dealt a historic blow to the Islamic Republic’s nuclear-weapons program.

Iran planned to invade Israel ‘from all sides,’ with ‘nuclear strike,’ thousands of terrorists, Danon says

“We will not sit quietly while our people are targeted,” the Israeli envoy said. “Empty words will not stop Iran. Israel will.”

(June 13, 2025 / JNS)  Israel’s strikes against Iran on Friday morning were a “calculated and necessary action” that was “carried out in response to an escalating existential threat,” Danny Danon, Israeli ambassador to the United Nations, told reporters in New York at the global body’s headquarters.

The Islamic Republic has a long history of funding and training terror proxies across the Middle East, but the direct threat from the regime “took a dramatic turn,” Danon said. “Iran advanced significantly toward nuclear weapons capabilities.”

Israel should annex at least part of Judea and Samaria

Mike Huckabee, Trump’s pick for ambassador to Israel, is “someone who has a long record of being vocally supportive of annexation.”

(March 25, 2025 / JNS)  Israel’s strength stems from its people, but its continued presence on the Jewish nation’s historic homeland is vastly important as well—both from a security as well as a nationalistic perspective.

With a deeply pro-Israel U.S. administration currently in the White House under President Donald Trump’s second term, the question many Israelis have today is whether Israel will annex any part of Judea or Samaria.

Israel won’t work with UN relief chief sans apology, Danon says

“We are not planning a genocide. This is outrageous that a senior U.N. official would use that language,” the Israeli envoy told JNS.

(May 21, 2025 / JNS)  Danny Danon, the Israeli envoy to the United Nations, expects an apology from Tom Fletcher, the U.N. under-secretary-general for humanitarian affairs and emergency relief coordinator, for his comments last week about Gaza to the U.N. Security Council.

“For those killed and those whose voices are silenced, what more evidence do you need now? Will you act decisively to prevent genocide and to ensure respect for international humanitarian law?” Fletcher told the council on May 13. “Or will you say instead that ‘we did all we could?’”

The United Nations Security Council has, for the first time since 7 October, held a meeting focused on the return of bodies held by Hamas in Gaza.

It comes following calls from Israel and bereaved hostage families to enforce international law and implement Resolution 2474.

The resolution, adopted in 2019, obliges both state and non-state actors to account for missing persons during armed conflict and return their remains.

The resolution, which passed by a 124-14 margin with 43 abstentions, is meant to give force to a July advisory opinion by the International Court of Justice, which declared Israeli presence to be illegal in any area over the 1949 armistice line.

ONU: Embajador de Israel pide al Consejo de Seguridad que condene a Hezbollah

El embajador de Israel ante la ONU, Danny Danon, publicó el lunes una carta en la que pide al Consejo de Seguridad de la organización que condene a la organización terrorista libanesa Hezbollah después del ataque masivo con cohetes y aviones no tripulados contra Israel de ayer.

La carta, fechada el domingo, al secretario general de la ONU, Antonio Guterres, culpó al Líbano y a Hezbollah por las crecientes tensiones a lo largo de la frontera norte de Israel, que han provocado que 60.000 israelíes huyeran de sus hogares. También señaló a Irán por guiar a la organización terrorista libanesa.

El ataque del domingo se produjo después de que las Fuerzas de Defensa de Israel lanzaran un ataque preventivo contra lanzadores que apuntaban al centro y norte de Israel. A pesar de ello, cientos de cohetes y más de una docena de drones fueron disparados contra Israel.
