Permanent Representative of the United States to the UN Nikki Haley during the meeting of the Security Council of the organization did not listen to the speech of the Palestine's Permanent Representative and demonstratively left the hall. During her speech, Haley claimed that the massacre in the Gaza Strip, which killed 59 people, was not the fault of Israel and the transfer of the US Embassy to Jerusalem. "The location of the embassy is not relevant to the specific boundaries of Israel's sovereignty in Jerusalem or to the resolution of disputed borders. He does not undermine the prospects of peace in any way, "ABC quotes her. According to Hayley, the bloody attack was carried out by the Hamas movement, but the Americans, as always, did not provide any evidence of guilt, as always.

At the same time, Riyadh Mansour, the Permanent Representative of Palestine, stressed that the United States should press on Israel and achieve from it an end to violations of the rights of the Palestinians, as well as create the conditions for "overcoming the impasse in the political settlement" of the conflict. Recall, on Monday, May 14, the United States moved its embassy to Jerusalem. On the same day, Palestinians came to the border of the Gaza Strip, which were dissatisfied with Washington's actions. The Israeli military in the clashes opened fire on the protesters. As a result, 59 people were killed, about 3 thousand were injured.
