Human Rights Observatory calls for immediate, complete lifting of siege imposed on Gaza strip.

Human Rights Observatory calls for immediate, complete lifting of siege imposed on Gaza strip.

The Euro-Mediterranean Human Rights Monitor called on the Israeli occupation to immediately and completely lift the siege imposed on the Gaza Strip, open the crossings, and guarantee full, safe, and sustainable humanitarian access to all parts of the Strip.In a statement, the Monitor warned of the dangerous escalation in the establishment by Israeli occupation forces of permanent and fortified military positions inside the Gaza Strip, near what is known as the "Yellow Line," which isolates approximately 55 percent of the Strip's area and subjects it to direct Israeli control. The Monitor considers this part of a systematic policy aimed at imposing a permanent reality that paves the way for the de facto annexation of large parts of the occupied Palestinian territory, eliminates what remains of its geographical contiguity, and deepens the illegal Israeli presence there.The Euro-Mediterranean Human Rights Monitor called on the international community to take immediate and effective action to stop the ongoing Israeli crimes in the Gaza Strip and to reject any measures or arrangements on the ground that would entrench a forced demographic or geographic change in the Strip, reduce its area, or separate its parts from one another. The Monitor stressed that the continuation of these measures consolidates illegal realities imposed by force and threatens to transform them into a permanent status quo.The Monitor demanded that Israel be compelled to withdraw completely from the Gaza Strip and end its illegal presence in all of the occupied Palestinian territory, including the West Bank and East Jerusalem, in accordance with the International Court of Justice's ruling that this presence must end as soon as possible, and in compliance with the UN General Assembly resolution that called on Israel to end it without delay.It stressed that the duty of states does not stop at political condemnation, but requires taking practical measures to stop the violation and prevent contributing to its continuation, including imposing targeted sanctions, stopping any military, security, logistical or intelligence cooperation that may contribute directly or indirectly to maintaining the illegal situation, refraining from providing any aid, assistance or recognition that would legitimize the de facto annexation or illegal occupation, and working collectively through the United Nations to ensure accountability and end this illegal situation.
