"UN Response to Hamas Attack and Sexual Violence Criticized by US Envoy and Katz"
TL;DR
Israeli Foreign Minister Israel Katz criticized UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres for failing to respond adequately to the Hamas-led October 7 invasion of Israel, alleging bias due to the victims being Jewish. Katz called on the UN to declare Hamas a terrorist organization and impose sanctions, as well as ensure the release of remaining hostages in Gaza. The UN Security Council debated the report on sexual violence during the invasion, marking the first time it has discussed this issue related to the attack.
