The Euro-Mediterranean Human Rights Monitor:
▪"Israel" uses Gaza relief coordination to protect the occupation and settlement expansion.
▪Excluding Britain from the international support center for Gaza confirms its full subordination to the occupation system and its political conditions.
▪Retaliatory measures against London included closing its consulate and barring officials there from entering "Israel" in response to its ban on trade with settlements.
▪"Israel" previously blocked the participation of Spain and the Netherlands as punishment for their positions rejecting settlements and Israeli policies.
▪Israeli control over the humanitarian aid coordination mechanism is used to blackmail states and subjugate the Palestinian people.
▪The occupying power is legally obliged to ensure basic supplies, and establishing the support center does not exempt it from its responsibilities.
▪The International Court of Justice affirmed the need to facilitate UN relief plans without invoking security and political considerations.
▪Israeli policy seeks to dismantle the independent relief system by restricting "UNRWA" and banning dozens of international organizations.
▪Unilateral conditions are reshaping humanitarian work in Gaza so that it becomes fully subject to Israeli control and the exclusion of independent actors.
▪The political use of relief coordination with the intent of starving civilians entails individual criminal responsibility and constitutes an element of the crime of genocide.
▪States are called on to act immediately and effectively to compel Israel to stop genocide, starvation crimes and forced displacement.
▪The siege imposed on Gaza must be fully lifted, with relief coordination assigned exclusively to the United Nations and UNRWA.
▪Comprehensive sanctions and an arms embargo are an imperative necessity to end the occupation and hold officials accountable before the International Criminal Court.
