Israel's foreign minister announced Wednesday that U.N. Secretary-General António Guterres has been declared "persona non grata" and barred from entering Israel.

Foreign Minister Israel Katz accused Guterres of bias, citing his failure to condemn Iran's recent attack on Israel.

"Anyone who cannot unequivocally condemn Iran's heinous attack on Israel does not deserve to step foot on Israeli soil."

"This is an Israel-hating Secretary-General, who gives support to terrorists," he said.

Two injured in Jordan by shrapnel during Iran's attack on Israel
(Middle East Eye, 2024-10-01)

------

"Missile interceptions were reported over Jordan's skies during the attack.

"The interior ministry said shrapnel fell in the capital Amman, and the cities of Balqa, Zarqa, Madaba, and Karak."

I've been wondering what happens to the rest of "succesfully" intercepted missiles... 🤔

Damascus??

"Three civilians have been killed and nine others wounded in Israeli strikes on Syria’s capital Damascus, state-run media has reported.

"The Syrian Arab News Agency (SANA) earlier reported that its television anchor Safaa Ahmad was killed on Tuesday in “treacherous Israeli aggression” targeting the Syrian capital."
