UN adds Israel to 'blacklist' of countries that harm children in conflict zones amid Gaza war

The UN Secretary General has informed Israel of its decision to add the country to a blacklist of countries that harm children in conflict zones, according to Israel's UN ambassador Gilad Erdan. In a statement by Erdan, he says Secretary General Antonio Guterres told him of the official decision, which was made on grounds of harm made to children during the Gaza war. Erdan criticized the decision and called it "disgraceful."

Netanyahu on UN decision to blacklist Israel: 

'UN has put itself on the blacklist of history, IDF is the world's most moral army'

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu responded to the UN's decision to include Israel in a blacklist of countries that inflict harm on children in conflict zones, and said, "the UN has put itself today on the blacklist of history, when it joined those who support the Hamas murderers. The IDF is the world's most moral army, and no preposterous UN decision can change that."
