UN Special Rapporteur Francesca Albanese has hit back at criticism from US and Israeli officials after she endorsed a picture drawing a parallel between Adolf Hitler and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Al Jazeera reports.
“The Memory of the #Holocaust remains intact and sacred thank[s] to people of conscience worldwide. Institutional rants and outburst of selective moral outrage will not stop the course of #Justice, which is finally in motion,” she wrote on X.
Earlier, US Ambassador to the UN, Linda Thomas-Greenfield, said Albanese was “not fit” for a UN position, while the Israeli Foreign Ministry said she was “beyond redemption”.
