The United Nations has officially added Israeli entities, including the Israeli Prison Service, to its blacklist of parties accused of committing sexual violence in conflict zones, a list that also includes Hamas and other terror organizations. This decision, revealed by the Jerusalem Post, follows allegations made by UN Secretary-General's representative on sexual violence in conflict, Pramila Patten, regarding acts of rape and sexual violence committed by Hamas during the October 7 massacre. In response, Israel has frozen relations with the UN Secretary-General’s Office and canceled a planned visit by Patten, labeling the UN's actions a moral disgrace. Israeli Ambassador to the UN, Danny Danon, expressed outrage, stating that the inclusion of Israel on the same list as Hamas undermines the UN's credibility. The controversy intensified following a New York Times op-ed alleging a culture of sexual violence within Israeli security forces, which Israel's Foreign Ministry denounced as a baseless blood libel. Human rights advocates have criticized the UN's decision, calling it a significant blight on the organization and urging for reforms to address perceived biases.
