JAKARTA - The Indonesian delegation chose to walk out of the General Assembly room, as Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu prepares to hold a speech at the 79th UN General Assembly in New York, United States, Friday.

From the video received by VOI on September 27, applause echoed in the room, when one by one the delegations of a number of countries chose to walk out and leave the General Assembly room, when it was PM Netanyahu's turn to give a speech.

In one photo obtained, the seat of the Indonesian delegation is seen empty when the Israeli Prime Minister delivers a speech.

It is known, apart from Indonesia, the Turkish and Pakistani delegations were also among those who chose to walk out.

As previously reported, PM Netanyahu is in the spotlight not only about Gaza but the onslaught of troops in Lebanon targeting Hezbollah. The US and its allies proposed a 21-day ceasefire on the Israeli-Lebanon border.

In his speech, PM Netanyahu vowed to continue Israel's attacks on Iranian-backed fighters in Lebanon, as hopes faded for a ceasefire that could prevent a regional war from going all out.

"As long as Hezbollah chooses the path of war, Israel has no choice, and Israel has the right to eliminate this threat and return our citizens to their homes safely," he said.

"Israel has tolerated this intolerable situation for almost a year. All right, I came here today to say it's enough," added PM Netanyahu.
