Over a dozen human rights experts have called on nations worldwide to act to halt Israel's assault on Palestinians.

Over a dozen human rights experts have denounced Israel for resuming what they described as "weaponised starvation" in Gaza after its decision to stall ceasefire efforts and block humanitarian aid from entering the enclave. The move "flagrantly breaches international law and any prospects of peace", the independent UN experts said in a statement on Thursday. “We are alarmed by Israel’s decision to suspend once again all goods and supplies, including life-saving humanitarian aid entering the Gaza Strip," they added. "As the occupying power, Israel is always obliged to ensure sufficient food, medical supplies and other relief services. By deliberately cutting vital supplies, including those relating to sexual and reproductive health, and assistive devices for persons with disabilities, Israel is once again weaponising aid."
The press release added that such blockades violate international humanitarian and human rights laws and are considered war crimes and crimes against humanity under the Rome Statute.
