The Palestinian foreign minister and Israel's ambassador both leveled accusations of "genocide" during a special United Nations debate Thursday as deadly crossfire between Israeli forces and Palestinian militant groups entered in its 11th day. "The whole world stays silent and turns a blind eye to the genocide of whole Palestinian families," said Palestinian foreign minister Riad Al-Malki, during whose speech Israeli Ambassador Gilad Erdan walked out. Speaking later before the assembly, Erdan alleged there was indifference to "Hamas' charter, which, like the Nazis, is committed to the genocide of the Jewish people." prh-mdo/bgs
