ANNHRI urges international community to stop Israeli aggression against Palestinians

Doha - The Doha-based Arab Network for National Human Rights Institutions (ANNHRI) has called on the international community to urgently intervene to stop the continuous Israeli occupation aggression against the Palestinian people.

The network condemned the Israeli occupation forces' continued systematic aggression and escalation against the Gaza Strip since the start of the aggression on May 10, 2021, during which it targeted various populated residential areas, and deliberately targeted safe Palestinian homes and demolished them without prior warning, which caused the annihilation of entire families, in addition to deliberately targeting civilian and public facilities in an organized manner, and damaging them on the basis of revenge and collective punishment, causing dozens of martyrs and leaving hundreds wounded, with suspicion of using prohibited international weapons and gases. This came during the emergency meeting of the ANNHRI's executive committee held today by the Network's general administration via video conference technology at the invitation of the Independent Commission for Human Rights in Palestine, which chairs the ANNHRI in its current session, and with the participation of the national human rights institutions members in Qatar, Jordan, Bahrain, Egypt, Oman, Iraq, Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia, Lebanon, Mauritania and Sudan.
