UN demanding to prevent Palestinians’ annihilation in Gaza

United Nations experts said on Wednesday that countries were at a moral crossroads over the conflict in Gaza, facing the choice between acting to halt the violence and witnessing “the annihilation of the Palestinian population” in the territory, The Guardian writes, referring to Agence France-Presse (AFP).

“The decision is stark: remain passive and witness the slaughter of innocents or take part in crafting a just resolution,” more than 20 independent UN experts said in a statement.

Since March 2, Israel has banned the entry of humanitarian aid into the Gaza Strip, and a few days ago it also announced its intention to annex the area.
