More anti-Israel U.N. blood libels: Guterres warns Israel of potential listing in sexual violence report

"In an unusual letter delivered to Israel's UN Ambassador to the UN, Danny Danon, UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres warned that Israel has been put ‘on notice’ ahead of possible inclusion in the next annual UN report on sexual violence in conflict zones. The letter accompanies the publication of the current report, which states that there is ‘serious concern’ concerning sexual violence by Israeli security forces against Palestinian Arabs in a number of prisons, a detention facility and a military base...

Israeli Ambassador to the UN, Danny Danon, responded to the letter and said: ‘The Secretary-General chooses once again to adopt as their word baseless accusations, which are steeped in biased publications. The UN must focus on the shocking war crimes and sexual violence of Hamas and the release of all hostages. Israel will not shy away from protecting its citizens and will continue to act in accordance with international law.’"
