JAKARTA - The actions of the Israeli government in carrying out military campaigns in Gaza continue to be criticized by the world's public. Their actions are even referred to as a form of crimes against humanity.

This was conveyed by UN human rights experts (HAM). They even say there is a risk of genocide against the Palestinian people.

"Given the statements made by Israeli political leaders and their allies, accompanied by military action in Gaza and increased arrests and killings in the West Bank, there is also a risk of genocide against the Palestinian people," experts warned in a statement.

"There is no justification or exception for such crimes," they said, as reported by Anadolu via Antara.

"We are surprised by the slow response of the international community to the act of triggering conflict that likes to go to war," the statement continued.

The experts also said the recent deadly airstrikes at Al-Ahli Hospital in northern Gaza killed hundreds of people and injured many others, in atrocities.

They also claimed to be angry with the deadly attack on a UNRWA school in the Al Maghazi refugee camp, which houses 4,000 refugees, as well as two densely populated refugee camps.

"It's time to speed up a ceasefire and ensure immediate and unobstructed access to essential humanitarian supplies, including food, water, shelter, medicines, fuel and electricity. Physical security of civilians must be guaranteed," he continued.

They assert that the occupation of Israel in Palestine must end soon, and that corrective, restitution, and reconstruction steps must be taken to ensure justice for Palestinians.

For 15 days, Israel continued to bombard the trapped Palestinian territories to the point of claiming the death toll, which now stands at nearly 3,000, 750 of whom are children.

The Israeli attack targeted buildings in densely populated residential areas, which it accused were used by the Palestinian Hamas group.

Airstrikes also hit hospitals and schools, according to reports by UN agencies such as the World Health Organization (WHO) and the United Nations Agency for Palestinian Refugees (UNRWA). Several medical staff and humanitarian staff were killed in Israeli attacks, along with journalists and civil service officials as well as local rescues.

The humanitarian disaster got worse when Israel cut off water, electricity and other supplies to Gaza. About 2 million people are experiencing a shortage of basic needs, which has raised concerns from the United Nations and human rights groups.

Egypt on Friday said that the borders of Rafah and Gaza had been opened, but said Israel refused to allow the entry of aid into the surrounded enclave.
