Hillel Neuer of UN Watch knew that Reem Alsalam, of Jordan, the UN special rapporteur on violence against women, only shows up one day per year for debate. So on that day he brought Ilana Gritzewsky to confront Alsalam personally in the UN session.
In 2025, Alsalam contradicted the UN’s own 2024 report. So this week, former hostage lana Gritzewsky testified in the UN Human Rights council to bravely tell of her own rapes during captivity.
