United Nations
meeting turned tense on Friday after a sharp verbal confrontation broke out between Israel’s ambassador to the UN, Danny Danon, and senior UN officials during a hearing focused on children affected by armed conflicts.
The incident took place in New York during an event marking the International Day for the Elimination of Sexual Violence in Conflict. The discussion escalated when Danon strongly criticized a UN report that, for the first time, placed Israel on a blacklist over allegations related to violations involving children and conflict.
Addressing the gathering, Danon demanded the resignation of Pramila Patten, the UN Secretary-General’s Special Representative on Sexual Violence in Conflict. He accused her of showing bias against Israel and claimed the report reflected what he described as a broader pattern of unfair targeting of his country by the United Nations leadership.
