Israel's UN Ambassador Danny Danon called on UN Secretary-General António Guterres to investigate and root out antisemitism and anti-Israel bias from UN reports and within the organization's ranks, according to Israeli media.
Israel's UN Ambassador Danny Danon on Wednesday evening called on UN Secretary-General António Guterres to root out and investigate what he described as antisemitism and anti-Israel bias from UN reports and within its own ranks. Danon's demand, reported by Israeli media, comes amid an ongoing confrontation between the Israeli envoy and UN officials over the treatment of Israel. Earlier Wednesday, as The Zioneer reported, Danon revealed that Vanessa Frazier, the UN Secretary-General's representative for children and armed conflict, shared antisemitic content and false information against Israel on social media. Danon has also recently clashed with UN officials during a Security Council meeting over sexual violence allegations, and called for the resignation of UN Special Representative Pramila Patten, as well as responding to the suspension of ICC prosecutor Karim Khan. The latest call broadens Danon's campaign against what he argues is systemic bias within the United Nations system.
