Israeli envoy and UN official clash at hearing on children in conflict

Danon accused UN officials of bias after reports said Israel was blacklisted for the first time over alleged violations against children and sexual violence.

  • On Friday, Israeli envoy Danny Danon demanded the resignation of United Nations official Pramila Patten at a New York meeting, accusing her of bias for blacklisting Israel in a report on sexual violence.
  • Diplomatic tensions escalated as Danon and Vanessa Frazier, the United Nations secretary-general's representative for children and armed conflict, engaged in a shouting match at a public United Nations hearing.
  • Frazier, representing United Nations Secretary-General Antonio Guterres, issued a report this week warning that Israeli settler groups could be blacklisted for violations against Palestinian children, citing a "staggering" rise in violations.
  • Refusing to back down, Danon told Frazier to be "quiet," calling her report "shameful," while Frazier demanded he refrain from "personal attacks" and insisted she had "verified evidence."
  • Both reports also blacklist Hamas; following May findings where Danon labeled Patten's work "a new low," Israel vowed to sever all ties with Guterres, who leaves office after 10 years.
