.@UN_SPExperts welcome the start of hearings before @CIJ_ICJ of a case brought by South Africa concerning allegations that Israel is committing acts of genocide against the Palestinian people.
"ICJ decisions are final, binding, and not subject to appeal," stress the experts.
💡 Organisations around the world are offering emergency protection, grants, legal, security support, & trainings for human rights defenders. A list of these resources is on my website.

#Gaza: UN experts point to evidence of genocide in the making, call for @UN protective presence in besieged enclave. “Failure to implement #CeasefireNowInGaza risks situation spiralling towards genocide conducted with 21st Century methods of warfare”: https://t.co/rdLSklxzj3
Today #ICC Prosecutor @KarimKhanQC wrote in The Guardian, Asharq Al-Awsat, The Standard & New Straits Times on current situation in State of #Palestine and #Israel: "We are witnessing a pandemic of inhumanity: to halt the spread, we must cling to the law"

Gaza is in the dark, with all telecoms & internet services cut off.
People cannot call emergency services, check on loved ones’ safety, or share the horror of what is happening with the world.
Internet connectivity must be restored now.

UN experts denounce strikes on hospitals & schools in #Gaza: "Israeli military action in Gaza & mounting violence in #WestBank creates risk of genocide against Palestinians. #GazaUnderSiege is a violation of international law & is also unspeakably cruel."

There is a clear line from the calls for royal reform in 2020, started by @arnonnampa, the monarchy conversation proposed by Move Forward, and the past few months in TL which saw MF barred from forming a government over its 112 amendment call. https://t.co/BnCiVA8wj0
Erasure of Palestinians' existence, whether through building colonies, the judaization of Jerusalem and its school textbooks, or a map brandished at the UN, is flagrantly unlawful. The UN cannot tolerate this affront to its core values & principles as enshrined in the UN Charter.
Adilur and Elan are convicted with two years of imprisonment and fines. A clear example of reprisal against human rights defenders in #Bangladesh. This arbitrary decision should be reversed @MaryLawlorhrds
