BAKU, Azerbaijan, October 25. Israel will refuse visas to UN representatives, Trend reports.
Israel's permanent representative to the UN Gilad Erdan noted that this step is related to the position of UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres on the Palestinian-Israeli conflict.
Earlier, Guterres stated that Tel Aviv's continued control over the Palestinian territories has become a precondition for Hamas attacks on Israel.
He condemned the terrorist attacks on Israeli civilians, but stressed that "those appalling attacks cannot justify the collective punishment of the Palestinian people".
