Israeli ambassador holds up photo of Mahsa Amini during Iranian president’s UN speech
An Israeli ambassador to the United Nations held up a photograph of Mahsa Amini during a speech by Iranian president Ebraham Raisi on Tuesday, 19 September.
The 21-year-old died in 2022 after being arrested by Iran’s morality police.
Gilad Erdan described Mr Raisi as the “Butcher of Tehran” as he explained his actions in a post on X/Twitter.
“I will never stop fighting for the truth and I will always expose the UN’s moral distortions,” he said.
Reports indicated that Mr Erdan had been detained, but the UN told The Independent Mr Erdan had just spoken with security.
