The decision was made after Israel's foreign minister, Israel Katz, criticized Guterres for not sharply enough condemning Iran's latest robot attack against Israel.
Katz believes that António Guterres through his actions shows support for what he calls «terrorists, rapists and murderers».
After Iran's attack, Guterres briefly commented on the events by calling for an immediate end to the violence in the region and calling for a ceasefire.
«I condemn the expansion of the conflict in the Middle East, with escalation after escalation . This has to stop. We have to get a truce,» commented António Guterres
