Francesca Albanese, the UN’s expert on human rights in the occupied Palestinian territory, has welcomed Israel being added to the UN’s annual “blacklist” of countries that have committed abuses against children in armed conflict but said the move is long overdue.
“It should have not taken 15,000 children killed, many more mutilated [and] 20,000 orphaned, to list Israel among the states who commit heinous violations of [international] law against children,” Albanese wrote on X.
