“DISTRESSING BIAS”
Ahead of Security Council Discussion: FM Katz Sends Strongly Worded Letter to UN Sec-Gen Guterres: Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Mar. 3, 2024 — … “Your response to the atrocities committed by Hamas is unacceptable. Your dismissal of the heinous acts as documented in the recent UN report—acts which are still being perpetrated—is not only inadequate but also offensive. The indifference displayed towards the report on Hamas’ sexual violence—crafted with bravery—is deplorable. Your reluctance to lead a decisive international stance against these atrocities signals a distressing bias. If the victims would not have been of Jewish or Israeli descent, your office would have responded in a much vigorous way. UNRWA, under your oversight, has been implicated in the massacre, with thousands of its staff entwined with Hamas terrorist activities.”
