Palestinian ambassador to the United Nations, Riyad Mansour, became emotional and broke down on Wednesday while speaking about the violence in Gaza.

Addressing the UN Security Council, Mansour struggled to hold back his emotions and broke down mid-speech.

“I have grandchildren. I know what they mean to their families," he said in a shaky voice, visibly distressed, as he thumped the desk in front of him, overcome with emotion.
