☆ Middle East Crisis U.N. Commission Accuses Both Israel and Palestinian Groups of War Crimes
  + stars: | 2024-06-12 | by ( Nick Cumming-Bruce | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +5 min
A United Nations commission investigating the Oct. 7 attacks on Israel and the subsequent conflict in Gaza has accused both Palestinian armed groups and Israel of committing war crimes, and the panel said that Israel’s conduct of the war included crimes against humanity. The U.N. report said that Palestinian armed groups killed and tortured people during the assaults that day. But Israel, during its monthslong campaign in Gaza to oust Hamas, has also committed war crimes, the commission said, like the use of starvation as a weapon of war through a total siege of Gaza. The commission said it had identified the people most responsible for war crimes or crimes against humanity, including senior members of Hamas and other Palestinian armed groups and senior members of Israel’s political and military leadership, including members of its war cabinet. The commission said it would continue its investigations focusing on those with individual criminal responsibility and command or superior responsibility.

☆ UN rights investigator aims to probe growing Israeli settler violence
  + stars: | 2023-06-20 | by ( Emma Farge | ) www.reuters.com   time to read: +2 min
On Tuesday, Palestinian gunmen opened fire near an Israeli settlement, killing four people. "We are very disturbed that violent settler activity has considerably increased in the last months and it's... becoming, in fact, the means through which (Israeli) annexation is insured," said Miloon Kothari, a member of a Commission of Inquiry mandated by the U.N. Human Rights Council. The COI addressed the Geneva-based Human Rights Council earlier on Tuesday, accusing Israel's government of placing growing restrictions on Palestinian civil society groups. Israel, which left its seat empty, said in a statement by its Foreign Minister Eli Cohen that the COI was a "stain on the U.N. and on the Human Rights Council". The council cannot make legally binding decisions but evidence collected by the inquiries it establishes is sometimes used by international courts.

☆ Palestinian rights group accuses Israel of 'mafia methods' as U.N. hearings open
  + stars: | 2022-11-07 | by ( Emma Farge | ) www.reuters.com   time to read: +3 min
The independent Commission of Inquiry, established by the Human Rights Council, the U.N. top human rights body, last year, plans five days of hearings which it says will be impartial and examine the allegations of both Israelis and Palestinians. A U.N. human rights office has previously dismissed allegations of bias and said Israel had not cooperated with the commission's work. Neither the hearings nor the U.N. Human Rights Council have any legal powers. Israel's ally the United States has criticised the U.N. Human Rights Council for what it has described as a "chronic bias" against Israel. The inquiry mandate includes alleged human rights abuses before and after that and seeks to investigate the root causes of the tensions.
