On June 19, Israel's UN ambassador Danny Danon and the UN Special Representative
for Children and Armed Conflict, Vanessa Frezer, exchanged a heated argument at
a meeting. Danon objected to Israel's inclusion on a UN list of parties credibly
linked to conflict-related sexual violence and accused the Secretary-General's
special representative on sexual violence in conflict, Patten, of bowing to
pressure. Frezer interrupted, citing procedural rules and barring personal
attacks, and the exchange escalated.
