The Algerian envoy to the UN, Amar Bendjama, delivered an emotional address at the UN Security Council over the humanitarian crisis in Gaza. The emotional speech included a tribute to Mariam Abu Daqqa, a Palestinian journalist killed in an Israeli strike on a hospital in Gaza. Bendjama read aloud a farewell letter written by the slain journalist to her 13-year-old son, which moved him to tears. He also condemned the targeting of journalists and held up a photo of a three-month-old who had reportedly starved to death, accusing Israel of using starvation as a weapon of war. The envoy also lamented the council's inaction, calling it a "theatre of lamentation" for its failure to halt the ongoing conflict. --- Algeria | Amar Bendjama | UNSC | Mariam Abu Daqqa | Journalists in Gaza | Humanitarian Crisis in Gaza | Gaza Hunger Crisis | Famine in Gaza | Israel Gaza War | Benjamin Netanyahu | Firstpost Africa | Alyson Le Grange | Africa | Global South | Geopolitics | Military Coup | Environment | Climate Change | Firstpost | News Live | World News | Latest News | Global News | International News | News | Trending News
