Israel and the United Nations (U.N.) have a fraught relationship that has worsened in recent months. The U.N. chief's comment in 2023, which was seen as justifying Hamas' attacks in Israel, set a negative tone for their ties. Israel's Foreign Minister has deemed the U.N. Secretary-General 'persona non grata' and accused him of supporting militant groups. Israel is also trying to ban the U.N. agency helping Palestinian refugees, UNRWA. The U.N.'s efforts to provide aid in Gaza have faced numerous obstacles, including fighting, Israeli evacuation orders, and lack of security for humanitarian staff.
