At Benjamin Netanyahu’s UN General Assembly speech on September 25, 2025, there was a mass walkout as he began speaking.

An Israeli government tally subsequently put the number at 77 delegations that were either absent or left at the beginning, but explicitly noted that this did not mean all 77 staged a walkout. For example, some countries had not taken their seats before the speech, while Pakistan reportedly walked out and then listened from the sidelines.
