Thank you @GermanyUN & UN Holocaust Programme for bringing us together to explore the power of photography & art in preserving Holocaust memory and historical truth. 88 years after Kristallnacht, the lesson remains: When antisemitism is normalized, violence is never far behind.

My colleague @JennySedov on a glaring contradiction: a UN mandate tasked with combating Nazi glorification cannot turn a blind eye to Nazi inversion and Holocaust distortion within the #UN itself. The UN must be a shield against antisemitism ⬇️

Powerful statement by @ShaniTayarr @ the UN on freedom of religion, the horrific abuse of Israeli victims’ bodies on October 7, and Hamas’s cynical exploitation of holy sites ⏬

If there were an award for lies, hatred, and blood libels, Navi Pillay wouldn’t just be a contender. She’d be a frontrunner. Her role in the relentless, politically motivated demonization of Israel and promotion of the genoLIE speaks volumes. Awarding Pillay the Nobel Peace Prize isn’t a recognition of justice. It’s the grotesque weaponization of an award to legitimize anti-Israel hatred and prejudice. Now that the Nobel commission has rewarded the biggest lie of the 21st century, Joseph Goebbels is certainly applauding from hell.

This man is a hero. Captain Smit Machchhar, the Indian captain of flydubai Flight 1073, fought back after being stabbed in the cockpit. Despite being severely injured, he managed to unlock the cockpit door - allowing Israeli passengers and the Emirati crew to intervene and save all the passengers. Together, their extraordinary courage saved 174 lives. Indian. Israeli. Emirati. Different nationalities. One extraordinary act of courage. 🇮🇳🇮🇱🇦🇪 We wish Captain Machchhar a full and speedy recovery.

Institutional obsession isn't free. UN member states aren't just funding the United Nation. They're funding a permanent institutional machinery targeting one country. #unmasktheUN

#AmbassadorsTake on the new educational complex in Kafr Aqab, Jerusalem. While UNRWA is playing politics, Israel is building schools and improving the daily lives of Jerusalem’s residents, Jews and Arabs alike.

The @UN has developed an institutional obsession with Israel over the past decades. Its double standards reflect just how far the organization has drifted away from its founding values. UNmask the @UN.

#Sebastia scandal Today, the @UNESCO World Heritage Committee has thrown the rug under its own principles and procedures by approving the Palestinian resolution to register Sebastia as a heritage site in danger. The committee did not even accede to the request of certain countries to bring the resolution to a vote, and gave its hand to a move that completely distorts the principles of the World Heritage Convention trying to rewrite history. Once again, the Palestinians have used UNESCO as a tool to supposedly obtain empty political dividends. It is clear to any reasonable person that the Palestinians have no historical or heritage connection to Sebastia, which was established as the capital of the ancient Kingdom of Israel 2,800 years ago. Even today, the maintenance, conservation and development of the Sebastia site are carried out by professional and competent Israeli authorities, in accordance with the Oslo Accords, which the Palestinian Authority itself signed, as is well known. @IsraelMFA @NinaBenAmi @CzechMFA @Israel @gidonsaar

Allegations at UNESCO regarding Sebastia deliberately erase one fundamental truth: Sebastia is one of the most significant ancient Jewish heritage sites in the Land of Israel. Israeli Representative @NinaBenAmi to UNESCO: “Any discussion of Sebastia must recognize, explicitly, the ancient Jewish presence and connection to this land. Yet the Palestinian submission deliberately ignores this historic fact. In doing so, it seeks to erase the people of Israel’s connection to the Land of Israel. It is a travesty. The eternal connection of the Jewish people to the Land of Israel will not be severed by a resolution in UNESCO.” Full statement: gov.il/BlobFolder/news/israe…

UNSC @antonioguterres’s latest moral failure: reportedly trying to secure an unprecedented second term for UNHC for Human Rights @volker_turk instead of leaving the choice to his successor. After years of bias against Israel, the answer is accountability - not rewriting the rules.

Allegations today at UNESCO that the Beaufort site is endangered because it is “presently under direct Israeli military occupation” are outrageous. It is the terrorist organization Hezbollah who is endangering Lebanon's historical sites, including the Beaufort. During more than a decade, jihadist Hezbollah transformed the 12th Century Crusader Castle into a terrorist stronghold. Hezbollah dug a massive network of terror tunnels directly beneath this ancient site, and launched hundreds of rockets, missiles and UAVs at Israeli civilians from this compound. One should ask why during Hezbollah's occupation no proposal was advanced to recognize it as a site in danger. Link to full speech gov.il/BlobFolder/news/israe…

In response to Ecosoc’s yearly resolution (E/2026/L.23- look it up) - they somehow failed to name or even mention Hamas. The UN may have forgotten, or want to ignore it, but we can’t. We never will. We don’t have that privilege.

Israel has always been committed to protecting sites of historical, cultural, and religious significance and to safeguarding #WorldHeritage, even in times of conflict. This commitment is rooted in the enduring heritage of the Jewish people in the Land of Israel and in our duty to preserve this shared legacy for future generations. @UNESCO
