Israel's foreign minister, Gideon Saar, defends Israel's vote against a UN resolution condemning Russia's invasion of Ukraine, stating that it was a bid to align with the US and bring an end to the war. Saar maintains that Israel still views Russia as the aggressor in the conflict. The vote has faced backlash, with some calling it 'vomitous' and comparing the countries voting 'no' to an 'Axis of Evil'. Israel had previously supported Ukraine in UN votes but voted 'no' to support the US initiative to end the war peacefully.
