Israel has taken a bold step by recalling its ambassador to the United Nations for consultations, citing the failure of the U.N. chief to address a new report on sexual violence during the Hamas-led attack on Israel. The report, released on Monday, found evidence of sexual violence and abuse of hostages in the Gaza Strip. Israel’s foreign minister criticized the U.N. secretary general for not immediately convening the Security Council to discuss the report and declare Hamas a terrorist organization. The decision to recall the ambassador has sparked tensions between Israel and the United Nations. Despite the controversy, the report has been welcomed in Israel, with many praising its moral clarity and integrity. However, the recall of the Israeli ambassador has left some legal scholars and women’s rights activists confused. The report serves as confirmation of the sexual violence and gender atrocities committed during the attack. The rising tensions between Israel and the United Nations reflect the broader distrust of the U.N. in Israel. The U.N. secretary general has been an outspoken critic of Israel’s military campaign in Gaza and has been advocating for an immediate cease-fire and the release of the hostages.
