Netanyahu slams UN report

Israel’s prime minister says the United Nations report on last year’s Gaza war is “biased”.

Benjamin Netanyahu said the UN Human Rights Council, which commissioned the inquiry, does “everything but worry about human rights””.

The report found both Israel and Palestinian militant groups may have committed war crimes during the conflict last July.

More than 2,200 Palestinians were killed during the fighting, according to UN and Palestinian officials – while 73 people died on the Israeli side.
