The Palestinian Islamic Resistance Movement Hamas condemns UN Secretary-General's exclusion of the Zionist occupation state from the "List of Shame" issued by the United Nations, despite the documented reports that reveal the occupation's crimes against the Palestinian children. The United Nations reports revealed that the occupation killed 78 Palestinian children and maimed 982 others during 2021 only.

The continued crimes and violations against the Palestinian children reveal once again the inherent terrorist behavior of this occupation in its aggressive policy against our Palestinian people, for which the leaders of the occupation must be tried as war criminals in the International Criminal Court. The failure to include the occupation on the "list of shame" is an unfortunate and condemned behavior aiming at covering up the occupation crimes and encourages it to escalate its aggression and terrorism against our Palestinian land, people, and holy sites.
