US Democratic Senator Chris Van Hollen has sharply criticised Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu ahead of Netanyahu’s planned visit to the United Nations General Assembly.
Al Jazeera reported that Van Hollen described Netanyahu as a “chronic liar” and a “lying war criminal”. The characterisations are allegations made by the senator, not findings established in the supplied material.
The report gives no date or setting for Van Hollen’s remarks and provides no further context for them. It also does not specify when Netanyahu is due to visit the General Assembly.
