Last August, the UN cited “credible information” about sexual abuse by Israeli soldiers against Palestinian prisoners in prisons and other detention facilities, and said UN inspectors had been denied access to the sites.

“We invited the UN envoy to come to Israel to look into the ridiculous claims. He chose not to come,” UN Ambassador to Israel Danny Danon wrote on X on Thursday.

“I have not received much information about the Israeli government’s implementation of preventive measures,” said Pramila Patten, a UN official who wrote the post. reporthe told reporters on Friday at a briefing at UN headquarters in New York.

“I have asked several times in writing, and sometimes in meetings, to hear more information about the basic measures, including the issuance of the rules about access and information about the response, but I have not received an answer about the details of the preventive measures,” he added.

Patten confirmed that there had been an invitation from Israel, but he also cited disagreements over the scope of the visit and other issues related to opportunities and cooperation, and said that in the end it had to be stopped because of Israel’s war in Gaza.

‘More events’ in Gaza and the West Bank

This year’s report said that in the year 2025 “the United Nations confirmed that there were many sexual violence, including the torture of 14 men, 7 women, 9 boys and 1 girl in the Gaza Strip and the West Bank (who was captured).

He said 13 of these demonstrations took place last year, and 18 in 2023 and 2024.

“Rape includes rape, rape, gang rape, attempted rape, sexual assault, sexual assault, touching of breasts and genitals, unwarranted genital searches, forced genitals and threats of rape,” it said.

“Rape and rape by terrorists, sometimes repeatedly, happened to nine victims, mostly Palestinians from Gaza,” it said, adding that the perpetrators included Israeli soldiers and security forces. These attacks were carried out mainly during detentions and interrogations in several places, including military camps, checkpoints and during Israeli military operations in the Occupied Palestinian Territory.

It said the survivors included journalists and human rights activists and that in some cases, the violations were recorded or filmed, including one case of rape.

The report added that sexual abuse of female prisoners included threats of rape, forced genitalia, indecent sexual assault, and unwarranted humiliating or humiliating searches, while men and boys were subjected to rape, attempted rape, and genital violence.

This left the five male victims with severe bleeding or swelling for days or weeks, it added.

Russia was added to the list along with Israel

The latest UN report also contains horrifying descriptions of abuses at the hands of Russian soldiers “after finding that sexual abuse continues to be documented”.

The UN human rights watchdog in Ukraine confirmed 310 cases of conflict-related sexual abuse committed by Russian soldiers.

It said the crimes, including rape, gang rape, mutilation, electrocution and genital beating, injured 280 men, 26 women and four girls.

The report’s appendix lists 77 parties suspected of committing conflict-related violence, including 62 non-state actors.

The new additions include three non-government armed groups operating in the Democratic Republic of the Congo.

Nearly 10,000 cases of conflict-related sexual violence were recorded worldwide last year – double the previous year’s figure, the report said.

Being added to the list is not limited to specific sanctions such as sanctions, although public naming and shaming can cause reputational damage to the countries involved, and those who are repeatedly listed are banned from UN peacekeeping operations.

Patten said the increase in cases of sexual violence that the United Nations confirms is a serious problem that is still “really peaking”.

“This number may be due to the fact that we are going through a period where we have more violent conflicts, and that the perpetrators of violence feel emboldened by the impunity, where the crime has no cost,” he said.
