Israeli air raids on Gaza’s Jabalia refugee camp may be war crimes, according to the UN Human Rights Office. Bolivia severed diplomatic ties with Israel and Jordan recalled its ambassador after the bombings, which killed scores.
The UN Human Rights Office stated Wednesday that Israeli air assaults on Gaza’s largest refugee camp “could amount to war crimes”.
Israeli strikes on the Jabalia refugee camp twice in two days have killed and wounded dozens, according to the Hamas-run Palestinian health ministry.
Israel says Tuesday’s attack on Hamas leader Ibrahim Biari was successful.
“Given the high number of civilian casualties & the scale of destruction following Israeli air strikes on Jabalia refugee camp, we have serious concerns that these are disproportionate attacks that could amount to war crimes,” the office stated on X, once Twitter.
Israel has aggressively blasted Gaza in response to its bloodiest onslaught.
Israeli police said Hamas terrorists rushed across the border from Gaza on October 7, murdering 1,400 Palestinians and capturing over 230 hostages.
Hamas-run Gaza’s health ministry reports 8,796 deaths from Israel’s retaliatory bombing, mostly women and children.
Wednesday’s camp strike left enormous damage with rescuers digging amid wreckage to find bloody victims.
International outcry of the strikes’ high death toll led Bolivia to cut ties with Israel.
Jordan recalled its ambassador “to condemn the Israeli war that is killing innocent people in Gaza”.
On Wednesday, UN spokesman Stephane Dujarric said Antonio Guterres is “appalled over the escalating violence in Gaza, including the killing of Palestinians, including women and children in Israeli air strikes in residential areas of the densely populated Jabalia refugee camp”.
