#Gaza - Israel ‘ethnically cleansing’ north Gaza says former Israeli defence minister: Middle East Eye

1 December 2024

In an interview with Democra TV, former Israeli chief of staff and defence minister Moshe "Bogie" Ya'alon accused Israel of engaging in "ethnic cleansing" in the northern Gaza Strip. Ya’alon, who was dismissed by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in 2016, has since emerged as one of Netanyahu’s most vocal critics. The Palestinian Health Ministry reported on Saturday that the death toll in Gaza has risen to at least 44,382, with more than 105,142 Palestinians injured since the beginning of Israel's military offensive on 7 October 2023.

#Gaza #FrancescaAlabese #UNSpecialRapporteur #Israel - UN special rapporteur says sanctions must be imposed on Israel:

3 November 2024

Francesca Albanese says there is nothing that prevents a UN member state from abiding by international law, and states individually have an obligation not to aid or assist a state “which is committing atrocities day in and day out”.

“They have to stop those who are still transferring weapons [to Israel]… and also buying or purchasing military and security services from Israel must stop,” she told Al Jazeera.

Albanese said any trade with Israel must be “interrupted”, adding that diplomatic and political sanctions must also be applied.

“Whoever is not taking these steps is either responsible or completely indifferent to the plight of millions of Palestinians,” she noted.
