In a shocking display of defiance, Israeli Ambassador Gilad Erdan shredded a copy of the UN Charter at the General Assembly podium, accusing member states of undermining the treaty's principles.
The stunt came just before the Assembly voted overwhelmingly in favor of granting new rights and privileges to Palestine, including a call for the Security Council to reconsider Palestine's bid for full membership.
The resolution passed with 143 votes in favor, 9 against, and 25 abstentions. Watch as the diplomatic tensions between Israel and the international community come to a head.
