This is the best summary I could come up with:
Israel’s ambassador to the UN, Gilad Erdan, called on the international community to cease funding the UN after Friday’s UN general assembly vote, which did not condemn Hamas.
The UN secretary-general, António Guterres, said on Sunday he regretted that “instead of a critically needed humanitarian pause, supported by the international community, Israel has intensified its military operations”.
More than 2 million people, with nowhere safe to go, are being denied the essentials for life – food, water, shelter and medical care – while being subjected to relentless bombardment.
The two men “agreeed on efforts to get crucial food, fuel, water and medicine to those who need it, and to get foreign nationals out”, according to a Downing Street spokesperson.
According to a readout by Macron’s office, the leaders also reaffirmed Israel’s right to defend itself within the limits of international law and the importance of finding a way to release the hostages held by Hamas.
In a sign of the tensions being created in some of the debates at the UN, Thailand reproached Erdan, Israel’s UN ambassador, for showing a video to the UN general assembly depicting a Hamas terrorist attempting to behead a Thai national during the 7 October attack.
