NEW YORK (Dispatches) –
Palestine warned on Tuesday that Gaza is enduring relentless bombardment coupled with a deprivation of basic necessities, accusing the Zionist regime of using starvation as a weapon of war against civilians.
“There is no shortage of bombs falling on Gaza, but there is an imposed shortage of everything else; starvation as a weapon of war against an entire civilian population that is still being bombarded relentlessly,” Palestine’s ambassador to the UN in New York Riyad Mansour told the UN Security Council’s 9907th meeting on The situation in the Middle East, including the Palestinian question.
In his remarks, Mansour urged the international community to take concrete steps to put an end to the Zionist regime’s practices in the occupied territories.
“Palestine calls on all states to take measures against settlement colonization, annexation, and forcible displacement, and to end the Israeli unlawful presence in the occupied Palestinian Territories, in line with the International Court of Justice (ICJ) advisory opinion.
“We call on those who have yet to do so to recognize the State of Palestine without any further delay as a clear signal that they will not tolerate its destruction and the destruction of the two-state solution,” he said.
Amnesty International accused the Zionist regime on Tuesday of committing a “live-streamed genocide” against Palestinians by forcibly displacing Gazans and creating a humanitarian catastrophe in the besieged territory, claims the regime dismissed as “blatant lies”.
Echoing global concern after more than 18 months of war, the United Nations’ rights chief Volker Turk meanwhile called on the international community to launch “concerted efforts” to end Israel’s total aid blockade on the Gaza Strip, in effect since early March.
Rights group Amnesty, in its annual report, said Israel was acting with “specific intent to destroy Palestinians in Gaza, thus committing genocide”.
Israel’s retaliatory military aggression has killed at least 52,365 people in Gaza, according to the health ministry in the territory.
