Israeli Ambassador to the UN pens letter to UNSC president in response to report stating that Gaza won't be "livable" by 2020.

In stinging rebuke to hosts, UN chief denounces Iranian anti-Israel threats and Holocaust denial
"I strongly reject any threat by any [UN] member state to destroy another, or outrageous comments to deny historical facts such as the Holocaust," Ban said.
"Claiming another UN member state does not have the right to exist or describe it in racist terms is not only utterly wrong but undermines the very principles we have all promised to uphold," the UN chief added.
Khamenei, who has final say on all state matters in Iran, accused Israel of being made up of "bloodthirsty wolves," a day after Ban asked the cleric to tone down his rhetoric against Israel.

Egypt may resume civilian nuclear program, Morsi says

"The killing of an ICRC official in Quetta had seriously worried staff members of the organization about their security in Pakistan, particularly in the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and Balochistan. Dale, who converted to Islam, ran a health program in Quetta when he was kidnapped on January 5 while going home from work."

During the meeting Abbas said that "Israel is here to stay, no matter what certain extremists say…It is not that there is one state too many in the region; rather that there is one state too few."
