Netanyahu defends attacks on Lebanon and Gaza at UN

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu spoke on Friday at the United Nations to defend the actions of his military.

He said attacks against the Lebanon-based Shia Muslim group Hezbollah are justified. World leaders have been urging him to agree to a deal that would end the fighting in Lebanon, but he showed no sign of agreeing to a possible ceasefire. He also justified his plan to continue military operations against Hamas fighters in Gaza, even as the conflict is about to enter its second year.
