Abbas Blocked Again at UN | Global News

The U.S. has once again denied Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas a visa to attend the UN General Assembly, citing his failure to uphold peace commitments — a move echoing last year’s denial and sparking global debate. With 193 nations set to vote on whether he can address the assembly via video, the U.S. faces diplomatic pressure while justifying its stance with accusations of terrorism glorification. Meanwhile, Gaza’s humanitarian crisis deepens: Israeli strikes kill at least five Palestinians, including children, amid claims of targeting Hamas leadership — even as a British charity reports a drone strike at a medical facility they support. The UN confirms over 73,000 lives lost since the conflict began, underscoring the mounting human cost behind the political standoff.
