The United Nations special rapporteur has called for a halt to arms sales to the Israeli regime, which has been committing genocide in Gaza since October 2023.
Israel and the states that supply it with weapons "must be stopped," Francesca Albanese tweeted on Sunday.
The special rapporteur for the occupied Palestinian territory called for an end to the continued transfer of Western-made arms and munitions to Israeli forces.
“Seriously, how many children, along with their parents and grandparents, we must witness being starved, burned alive, or gathered into plastic bags after Western-manufactured bombs have shattered them?” she said in the social media post.
Several Western countries have continued to supply lethal weapons to the Israeli regime despite the enormous human toll caused by its war on the Palestinian territory.
The United States is the Israeli regime’s closest ally and main supplier of arms and ammunition.
Washington has provided the bulk of weaponry used by Israel, including 2,000-pound bunker buster bombs.
“Israel must be stopped, and so should the states supplying it with weapons,” Albanese wrote.
Since the Israeli regime launched its genocidal war on the Gaza Strip on October 7, 2023, more than 52,000 Palestinians, mostly women and children, have been killed.
The Tel Aviv regime’s merciless war has continued despite calls from the UN Security Council for an immediate ceasefire and directives from the International Court of Justice urging measures to prevent genocide and alleviate the dire humanitarian situation in Gaza.
