India stresses Security Council to list terror entities involved in violence against women

"Violence against women and girls perpetrated by terrorists deserve our strong condemnation. Such women-targeted violence distorts the very basis on which civilised societies rest," India said in a statement to the Security Council open debate on Women, Peace and Security Thursday, while it underscored the need for the UN Security Council to effectively integrate women, peace and security considerations into the sanctions regimes, including by listing terrorist entities involved in violence against women in armed conflicts.
