Read @EUpalestinians report on concerning developments driving the forcible transfer of Palestinians in grave breach of #IHL. eeas.europa.eu/delegations/pa…
@IsraelMFA @cogatonline maliciously and arbitrarily deprived #Palestinians of 2 million EUR of humanitarian relief provided by the @eu_echo and @EUCouncilPress Member States. #Israel must cease the wanton obstruction of humanitarian aid and provide reparations to victims.
@NRC_Norway has called on States to consider measures of retorsion to enforce the cessation of demolitions, reparations to victims, and guarantees of non-repetition of wrongful destruction of property, including humanitarian aid, on the part of Israel.
