Colleagues were bullied into not signing letter about Oct 7 attack: UN rapporteur

Dr Alice Edwards, UN special rapporteur on torture and other cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment, claimed that special rapporteurs were "bullied" into not signing a letter documenting allegations arising from the October 7 Hamas attacks against Israel. "There was this concerted effort for this letter not to put on record some allegations that had been received," she added.
