The U.N.'s credible documentation process validates serious concerns about systematic sexual violence patterns. The "on notice" category appropriately addresses access limitations while maintaining accountability standards. Rising conflict-related sexual violence demands immediate action. Survivors urgently need expanded, survivor-centered services — health care, justice, psychosocial support, and more.
This report reflects troubling bias against democratic nations while legitimizing terrorist organizations' narratives. Allegations against Israel especially, are steeped in biases, while Israeli courts are already investigating detention center incidents. Rather than drawing false equivalencies, the U.N. must prioritize accountability for Hamas's documented war crimes — equating Israel's self-defense measures with Hamas's deliberate attacks on civilians undermines justice and weakens the credibility of international human rights mechanisms.
