UN report claims Israel is committing genocide in Gaza, call for arms embargo

UN Special Rapporteur Francesca Albanese delivered a report to the body’s Human Rights Council on Tuesday, saying that she believed that Israel’s military campaign in Gaza since Oct. 7 amounted to genocide and called on countries to impose sanctions and an arms embargo immediately.

“I find that there are reasonable grounds to believe that the threshold indicating the commission of the crime of genocide against Palestinians as a group in Gaza has been met,” she told the UN rights body in Geneva.

Israel, which did not attend the session, rejected her findings.
