Addressing the 81st session of the UN General Assembly in New York, Attaf said Israel continued to kill Palestinian civilians despite the ceasefire in Gaza, which has been in effect since October 2025. He reaffirmed Algeria’s support for the Palestinian people’s right to establish “an independent, fully sovereign state with Jerusalem as its capital.” Attaf also condemned Israel’s “continued attacks” in Syria and Lebanon and its “efforts to divide Somalia.” READ: (https://www.middleeastmonitor.com/20260928-uk-foreign-minister-denounces-netanyahu-government-vows-tougher-action-over-gaza/) UK foreign minister denounces Netanyahu government, vows tougher action over Gaza   Turning to wider international affairs, Attaf warned of mounting crises and declining trust between states, saying the use of force was again taking precedence over consensus. He called for reform of the UN, saying it had become necessary in light of profound global changes and the need for a more just and representative international system. On the Gulf, Attaf said Algeria was following the escalation there with concern and urged steps to reduce tensions to preserve regional security and stability.
