Allegations of sexual abuse and exploitation by UN staff more than doubled last year, UN Secretary General Kofi Annan has said in a report.
Most of the allegations, which include rape, sexual assault and sex with minors, involved UN peacekeepers.
Mr Annan says he is "deeply troubled" by the increase.
Yeah, yeah. Annan has been saying that for years now after promising zero tolerance.
Almost half of the complaints against the peacekeeping troops involved sex with a minor and 15% involved rape or sexual assault.
Be sure and check out the side bar on the BBC webpage for more on UN sex crimes.
