UN Blacklists Israel and Russia
The United Nations has added Israeli and Russian forces to its annual global blacklist of perpetrators of sexual violence in conflict zones.
Israel has reacted with fury, announcing it will sever ties with UN Secretary-General António Guterres in protest of the decision.
The report cites documented cases of sexual abuse and rape against detainees, which Israel has categorically denied as defamatory.
Concurrently, Russian forces were cited for similar violations in Ukraine, marking a significant expansion of the UN's list of state actors accused of such crimes.
