The UN’s special envoy for conflict sexual violence flatly rejects the Israeli claim that UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres sought to suppress her report confirming allegations of sexual violence by Hamas-led terrorists on and after October 7.
“I must be clear and categorical: There has been no attempt by the secretary-general to silence my report or suppress its findings. On the contrary, I received his full support, politically, logistically, and financially; and he also gave clear instructions for the public release of my report, and its immediate transmission to the Security Council,” says Pramila Patten in her testimony to the Security Council on her report.
