Number of Palestinians Killed by Illegal Israeli Aggression Rises: Amnesty International
London: Amnesty International has reported a shocking increase in the number of Palestinians killed in Gaza due to Israel’s illegal aggression. Amnesty’s reports indicated that Israeli forces have unlawfully used lethal force against Palestinians since October.
‘Under the guise of constant bombardment and crimes in Gaza, the Israeli army has committed unlawful killings against Palestinians in the West Bank and shown disrespect for Palestinian life,’ said Erica Guevara Rosas, a spokeswoman for Amnesty.
Amnesty International also pointed out that more than 20 Palestinian children were killed by Israeli forces without provocation. Amnesty stated that such extrajudicial killings are a blatant violation of international human rights laws.
Amnesty International pointed out that the occupation and oppression of the Israeli state on the Palestinians is brutal.
At the same time, Avigdor Lieberman, the leader of Israel’s opposition party Yisrael Beiteinu and former finance minister, said that Israel should hand over control of Gaza to Egypt, and Israel and Jordan should share responsibility for the West Bank.
“The idea of two nations is dead. Not now. We need a different approach. It’s not logical to do the same thing for years and expect different results,’ added Lieberman.
Lieberman shared his opinion in an interview given to the Israeli daily Jerusalem Post.
Current figures show that the Palestinian death toll from the Israeli military offensive in Gaza has risen to 27,478 and 67,000 have been injured. Reports also indicate that 7,000 people are missing. In the last 24 hours, 113 Palestinians have been killed in airstrikes in Gaza, according to the Ministry of Health.
