Israel's president attacked the UN General Assembly in a speech on Monday marking the 80th anniversary of the Holocaust, accusing the body of exhibiting "moral bankruptcy" and failing to confront anti-Semitism.

Isaac Herzog addressed the forum during worldwide commemorations of the Holocaust in which six million Jews were murdered.

"Today, we find ourselves yet again at a dangerous crossroads in the history of this institution," Herzog said at the New York headquarters of the United Nations which Israel has repeatedly condemned since the Hamas attacks of October 7, 2023.

Israel gave a grim account Monday of seven freed hostages' health, saying that despite a "show" by Hamas to present them as healthy and smiling, they faced a long recovery from their ordeal.

The seven women freed so far under Israel's ceasefire deal with the Palestinian militant group were all malnourished, exposed to psychological suffering and wounded in various ways, said the deputy chief of the Israeli army's medical corps, Colonel Avi Benov.

The Israeli military on Monday said it had "eliminated over 15 terrorists" and arrested 40 wanted people during a major raid that began last week in the occupied West Bank city of Jenin.

The raid began two days after a truce took hold in the Gaza Strip, seeking to put an end to more than 15 months of the Israel-Hamas war that ravaged the Palestinian coastal territory.

The military said in a statement that during the Jenin operation troops seized dozens of weapons and "located an explosive device hidden inside a washing machine in one of the buildings in Jenin".

Saudi Arabia on Monday said foreigners are from now on allowed to invest in Saudi-listed companies that own property in Mecca and Medina, Islam's two holiest cities.

The decision "aims to stimulate investment, enhance the attractiveness and efficiency of the capital market, and strengthen its regional and international competitiveness while supporting the local economy," the kingdom's Capital Market Authority said in a statement.

US President Donald Trump's decision to re-designate Yemen's Huthi rebels as a foreign terrorist organisation could have deep implications for aid and the peace process in the war-shattered country.

The Iran-backed Huthis, who control much of Yemen, have fired on Israel and Red Sea shipping throughout the Gaza war, prompting reprisal strikes from US, Israeli and British forces.

Two Iranian men convicted of membership of the People's Mujahedin opposition group, outlawed by the Islamic republic, are at imminent risk of execution after being transferred to a different prison, the organisation and activists said on Monday.

The men, Behrouz Ehsani, 69, and Mehdi Hassani, 48, a father of three, were moved without prior notice on Sunday from Evin prison in Tehran to Ghezel Hesar prison in Karaj outside the capital, the National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI), the political wing of the People's Mujahedin, said in a statement.

Lebanon's health ministry said Israeli fire killed two people Monday and wounded 17 others in the south, in a second day of violence as residents tried again to return to border villages.

The bloodshed, which one analyst said was unlikely to re-spark war between Israel and Iran-backed Hezbollah, came hours after the extension of a Sunday deadline for Israeli forces to withdraw from south Lebanon under a November ceasefire deal.

The ministry said Israeli fire killed 24 returnees on Sunday.

The Israeli military and Hamas said Monday that an air strike killed two fighters from the Palestinian Islamist movement in the occupied West Bank city of Tulkarem.

In a statement, the military said that "in a joint operation by the Israeli army and the Shin Bet (internal security agency), an air force aircraft launched an attack" in the Tulkarem area.

Violence has soared throughout the West Bank since the war between Hamas and Israel broke out in Gaza on October 7, 2023.

Israel's national archives announced Monday they were granting public access online to hundreds of thousands of documents from the trial of Nazi war criminal Adolf Eichmann, one of the main organisers of the Holocaust.

Timed to coincide with International Holocaust Memorial Day, which marks 80 years since the liberation of the Auschwitz death camp, the national archives uploaded 380,000 pages of "chilling testimony, correspondence, lists and photographs" to their website, the Israeli prime minister's office said in a statement.

An unending stream of people marched up the coast of Gaza on Monday, carrying their belongings in plastic bags and repurposed flour sacks through the central city of Nuseirat after Israel reopened access to the territory's north.

Thousands walked up the main coastal road, while hundreds more moved along the nearby beach on the shore of the eastern Mediterranean.
