Afghan Voice Agency (AVA) - International Service: She said that international law was created to protect all human beings, regardless of their race, religion or nationality.
Albanese warned: “If these principles can be set aside when it comes to the Palestinians, what will happen in the next crisis?” She also emphasized that creating change is not only the responsibility of governments and institutions, but also the everyday choices of individuals; from the goods they buy to the companies, banks and services they choose to support.
The UN Special Rapporteur, who had previously condemned human rights violations in Palestine on several occasions, this time took a broader view, calling silence and indifference towards Palestine a threat to the entire human rights system in the world.
These statements come at a time when the war in Gaza continues and human rights organizations have repeatedly reported genocide and gross violations of international law by the Israeli regime in the region.
