Benjamin Netanyahu flew to the UN General Assembly, avoiding the airspace of countries in central and northern Europe, although France approved the request to use its airspace. Alternative routes included flying over Greece and Italy, to avoid the signatory countries of the Rome Statute that could implement an arrest warrant issued by the International Criminal Court. These measures are related to allegations of war crimes and crimes against humanity in Gaza. Netanyahu will speak at the UN and meet with American President Donald Trump.
