Mr Netanyahu, who called off a trip to Washington after the UN vote, faced scathing criticism in Israeli media on Tuesday for “overreacting” to the resolution.
A well-placed columnist at Maariv, a the centrist newspaper, called the prime minister’s reaction “madness” that “humiliated the American administration for no reason”.
“Every new day that that man is in office causes strategic damage to the future of the State of Israel,” wrote Ben Caspit.
Despite the UN resolution calling for a ceasefire, the IDF ramped up bombings of Gaza on Monday night, describing them as the largest in weeks.
Damage and loss of life was reported across the Gaza Strip, including 18 people, nine of them children, in an airstrike on one residential building in the north-east of Rafah.
