On Tuesday, the UN General Assembly (UNGA) is set to kick off its 79th session. The session opens 11 months into the Israel-Hamas war amid harsh criticism of the UN over reports of UN employees’ roles in the October 7 attacks. The UN’s historic anti-Israel bias is not expected to dissipate during this session, with Palestine participating in the UNGA in an official seat for the first time. The UNGA is also expected to discuss an advisory decision brought by the International Court of Justice that calls Jewish presence in the West Bank illegal.
