The United States has withdrew from the United Nations Human Rights Council, condemning the "duplicity" of its members and its alleged "unrelenting bias" against Israel.
Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu welcomed the US move, branding the council "a biased, hostile, anti-Israel organization that has betrayed its mission of protecting human rights."
The US ambassador to the United Nations, Nikki Haley, came to Washington to announce the decision with President Donald Trump's top diplomat, Secretary of State Mike Pompeo.
The announcement came after the top UN human rights official criticized Washington for separating migrant children from their parents who are seeking asylum after crossing into the country from Mexico.
