UN Daily Briefing with UNSG Spokesperson Stephane Dujarric

Published on: 30 October, 2024

The UN Independent International Commission of Inquiry has presented a detailed report to the Social, Humanitarian, and Cultural Issues Committee of the UN General Assembly.

This comprehensive report raises grave allegations against Israel, asserting that the state has enacted a systematic policy aimed at dismantling Gaza’s healthcare system.

This action is depicted as part of a broader campaign against the Gaza Strip, characterized by relentless and intentional assaults on both medical personnel and healthcare facilities.

The commission further alleges that these actions constitute war crimes, as well as the crime against humanity of extermination.

Such accusations underscore the urgent need for a thorough investigation and accountability for those involved in the ongoing violence and humanitarian crisis affecting the region.

The implications of these findings are profound, calling for immediate attention from the international community to address the humanitarian needs and uphold human rights in Gaza.
