3 February 2025 06:11 GMT
The UN special rapporteur on Palestine, Francesca Albanese, has condemned Israel’s actions in the occupied West Bank, calling them "criminal" and warning they indicate a clear intent for genocide against Palestinians.
Speaking to the Palestinian News Agency, Albanese said Israel’s campaign of destruction is expanding beyond Gaza to encompass the entire occupied Palestinian territory.
She stressed that she had foreseen this escalation in her October 2024 report to the UN General Assembly.
Albanese urged the international community to take immediate action, insisting that intervention is long overdue to halt the devastation.
