The United Nations is set to add Israel, and the Hamas terrorist group, to a blacklist of countries and groups that harm children — provoking an angry response from Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who called the decision “delusional.”
The United Nations will add Israel as well as Hamas to a list of countries and armed groups that harm children when it releases its annual report on children and armed conflict, citing the heavy toll the war in Gaza has taken on minors, including killing, maiming and starvation, U.N. officials said.
Netanyahu responded in a statement Friday: “Today the UN added itself to the black list of history when it joined those who support the Hamas murderers. The IDF is the most moral army in the world; no delusional UN decision will change that.” It is unclear how the Biden administration will respond to the report once it is presented to the UN Security Council next Friday.Erdan has caused consternation at the UN by releasing a video of his phone call with UN officials, who had contacted him to inform him that Israel was being blacklisted.
