'United Nations warns of Gaza genocide
Israel is engaged in a systematic campaign of crimes against humanity against Palestinians in Gaza, United Nations human rights experts warned in a statement published on Thursday, citing Tuesday’s deadly airstrikes that targeted a hospital and several refugee shelters
“Considering statements made by Israeli political leaders and their allies, accompanied by military action in Gaza and escalation of arrests and killing in the West Bank, there is a risk of genocide against the Palestine people,” the experts, who are members of the UN Human Rights Council’s independent Special Procedures body, explained.
Israel has violated international humanitarian and criminal law in cutting off drinking water, medicine, and food to Gaza, they continued, pointing out that the UN Security Council has repeatedly condemned the starvation of civilians as a method of warfare.
The group specifically referenced Tuesday’s airstrike on Al-Ahli Arab Hospital as an “atrocity,” as well as a strike that same day on a school run by the UN’s Palestinian refugee agency UNRWA ... Israel was fully aware of the civilian nature of both facilities, having twice threatened the hospital with attack if those inside were not evacuated, and received the coordinates of the school from UNRWA daily.
The UN experts quoted the World Health Organization’s claim that healthcare services in Gaza have been attacked over 136 times since Israel declared war on Hamas earlier this month.
Denouncing the international community’s “appalling” failure to act or even speak out strongly ... the group demanded an immediate ceasefire, full access to food, water, fuel, electricity, medicine, and shelter, and “reparation, restitution, and reconstruction, towards full justice for Palestinians.”'
