"Israel has zero tolerance for and strongly condemns any form of sexual exploitation, abuse or harassment, including for inaction and for retaliation against those who raise complaints or bear witness", said 🇮🇱 @sibakhateeb (in Arabic) at #WHA76.
Considering that the risk of sexual misconduct by @WHO personnel is high in emergency settings, we welcome the inclusion of PRSEAH in the WHO Emergency Response Program.

Year after year, the Syrian regime misuses @WHO to fabricate lies.
Reality Check:
This regime has:
❌murdered 100,000s of its own people
❌systematically bombed hospitals
❌ tortured thousands in detention
❌used chemical weapons against its own people.
