Dozens of diplomats, mostly representing Arab and Muslim countries but also Latin America, defend Francesca Albanese's mandate and her report accusing Tel Aviv of carrying out genocide of Palestinians.
Expanding in person on her report released on Monday, Albanese said Israel was characterising the entire Palestinian population in besieged Gaza as"targetable, killable and destroyable" and had ostentatiously laid bare its"genocidal intent" to"rid Palestine of Palestinians". "We commend your courage in documenting... acts amounting to genocide in Gaza," Islamabad's representative said.
Qatar, on behalf of the Gulf Cooperation Council, thanked Albanese for her report and demanded the international community"put an end to the genocide being perpetrated by the Israeli war machinery"."When genocidal intent is so conspicuous, so ostentatious, as it is in Gaza, we cannot avert our eyes: we must confront genocide, we must prevent it, and we must punish it," she said.
The European Union called for"proper and independent investigations on all allegations", and while appalled by the civilian death toll, it recognised Israel's right to self-defence.Albanese's speech concluded to applause in the chamber. Israel was not present, nor was its chief ally, the United States.
