128 countries say no to Jerusalem as Israel's Capital contrary to President Trump

The general assembly of the United Nations Organization has voted overwhelmingly against any decision by any nation to recognize Jerusalem as Israel's capital.

This comes after a recent decision by US President Trump to recognize the highly disputed city as Israel's capital.

Jerusalem is highly valued by both Israel and Palestine.

President Trump promised during his campaign speech last year to move the US embassy in Israel from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem. A move that has been widely criticised across the world.

Mr Trump's recent declaration has sparked further violence in the area, with several cases of death being reported.
