Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s visit to New York has reignited diplomatic friction with Ugandan President Yoweri Museveni, as the two leaders hold sharply opposing views on Israel’s handling of the Gaza conflict. Museveni, who has condemned Israel’s military actions and called for an immediate ceasefire, accused Netanyahu of undermining regional stability during their meeting. The exchange underscores deepening divisions between African and Western allies over the war’s humanitarian toll, with Museveni warning that continued violence risks further destabilizing the Middle East. Analysts suggest the clash highlights growing global pressure on Israel to reconsider its approach amid rising casualties and international criticism.
