Israel cuts ties with UN Secy General after being put on sexual violence blacklist

Israel announced that it was cutting all contact with UN Secretary-António Guterres after the UN added it to the blacklist of sexual violence in conflict zones, alongside Hamas. "This is a political decision! ​Disconnected from the facts and reality!" Israel's ambassador to the UN, Danny Danon, said. Guterres had warned Israel and Russia of their possible inclusion last year.
