iNewsIndependentProgressiveFactual 85Objective 655 days agoIsraeli Defence Minister Israel Katz has reignited controversy by suggesting that resolving the Gaza conflict might require the forced displacement of Palestinians through various means, including by sea or air. This idea has drawn criticism as it aligns with hard-right Israeli political factions' longstanding calls for removing Palestinians from Gaza. The discussion comes amid ongoing Israeli military operations in the region and the expansion of Israeli control over parts of Gaza. While a US-brokered ceasefire envisioned reconstruction and a future Palestinian government, Israeli officials have expressed doubts about these plans. Former US President Donald Trump had initially proposed relocating Gaza's population to Arab countries like Egypt and Jordan, but later shifted his stance, suggesting instead that the US would encourage residents to remain and rebuild Gaza.

Sudan rights coalition urges UN to disclose SAF’s foreign supportersA Sudanese coalition has urged the United Nations Human Rights Council to identify and publicly name the countries and external entities providing support to the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) in the ongoing civil war. The conflict began in April 2023 due to a power struggle between the SAF, led by General Abdel Fattah Al Burhan, and the Rapid Support Forces (RSF), commanded by General Mohamed Dagalo. The coalition, formed by African human rights activists, seeks to end the conflict and restore civilian governance. A UN fact-finding mission recently reported that foreign arms, military technology, and logistical support are intensifying the conflict and enabling more complex attacks on civilians. The mission noted that foreign-supplied drones and loitering munitions have enhanced the SAF's ability to conduct long-range strikes, including attacks on civilian areas like Yabus Market in Blue Nile State. The U.S. ambassador to the UN, Mike Waltz, emphasized the need for the UN Security Council to act decisively to prevent further suffering in Sudan.

War in Sudan: Genocide crimes and foreign supportA new United Nations report on the war in Sudan provides evidence of international support for the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) militia through weapons and mercenaries. The report highlights how technological advancements, particularly expanded drone capabilities, have altered the nature of the conflict, extended its geographic reach, and prolonged combat without clear pauses. Between January and May of this year, over 1,000 civilians were victims of drone attacks. The UN investigators documented attacks on health facilities, schools, places of worship, markets, refugee camps, civilian gatherings such as weddings and funerals, and energy infrastructure. Both the RSF and Sudan’s army are accused of committing war crimes by attacking civilian facilities with drones. The report also indicates that both warring parties receive foreign support, including weapons, advanced military technology, foreign fighters, financing, and other forms of assistance. External actors supporting the RSF include the United Arab Emirates, Chad, Libya, and the Puntland region of Somalia.
