Israel Could Be “Blacklisted” Over Killings of Palestinian Children, Says U.N. Chief
Israel should be added to a UN blacklist if its violence against Palestinian children is repeated this year, UN chief Antonio Guterres said on Monday (July 11).
In its annual Children and Armed Conflict report, the UN said Israeli forces killed 78 Palestinian children, maimed another 982 and detained 637 in 2021.
“I am shocked by the number of children killed and maimed by Israeli forces during hostilities, in air strikes on densely populated areas and through the use of live ammunition during law enforcement operations,” the UN secretary-general said in the report.
"Should the situation repeat itself in 2022, without meaningful improvement, Israel should be listed," he added.
