Israel Ignores “Fundamental Principles of Humanity” in Gaza: UNVienna, 27 May (ONA) — The UN’s top human rights official, Volker Türk, has
said that Israel’s occupation military actions in the Gaza Strip are no longer
covered by the principle of self-defence under international law.
We are talking about “an expulsion that is highly, highly
questionable,” Türk said on Austrian radio, referring to the effect
of the war on the civilian population.
“What we have witnessed in recent months has nothing to do with
respect for the fundamental principles of humanity,” said Türk, who
holds the title of UN high commissioner for human rights. “You can’t
really find any more words to describe what is happening.”
Israel’s friends in particular must exert massive diplomatic pressure
on the country to change its behaviour, the Austrian official said.
The ongoing genocide in Gaza has claimed more than 53,000 Palestinian lives,
according to Palestinian authorities in Gaza.
