Iran's First Counsellor and Alternative Representative to the United Nations Hossein Maleki blasted Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu for using the UN as a tool for deceiving the world, and said that Tel Aviv continues to admit injured terrorists to its hospitals.

"Israel accepts the terrorists at their hospitals and claim that they provide such services for the sake of loving the mankind," Maleki said, addressing the 71st meeting of the UN General Assembly in New York.

He said that contrary to what Netanyahu said at the UN General Assembly meeting Israel is keeping on its support for the ISIL terrorists in Syria.

"Israel is using the UN General Assembly as a tool to deceive the world," Maleki added.

The Iranian envoy reiterated that the Palestinians will continue their war against usurpers as long as the occupation goes on.

"Netanyahu also tried to cover up the fact that the regime’s actions have caused a lot of suffering and plight for a people who are living under occupation," Maleki said.

The Iranian diplomat also said that Netanyahu tried to divert the public attention from Zionist regime's stockpiles of nuclear bombs, chemical weapons and militarism which has been going on for several decades.
