And this year’s report has sparked intense debate and controversy.
The UN Secretary-General, Antonio Guterres sends a report about what’s happening with children during wars.
But this year, the report includes a list that shows countries or groups that are believed to be doing bad things to kids during conflicts.
Notably, Israel and Hamas have been included on this list for the first time.
However, In the past, Israel was not typically included in the annex of the report that lists parties who haven’t taken steps to protect children during the reporting period.
After the UN released, Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu called the UN’s decision was “crazy” or “unrealistic.”
However, following the UN’s report, Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu saying, “The UN has put itself on the blacklist of history today when it joined the supporters of the Hamas murderers.
The IDF is the most moral army in the world and no delusional decision by the UN will change that.”
