UNSC Resolution 2803 marks a catastrophic violation of the Palestinian right to self-determination. The UNSC is essentially establishing a joint US-Israel illegal occupation of Gaza, blatantly contradicting International Law. 🔴 Read our position paper https://t.co/z0AJoL6n7L

This shameful resolution on Gaza by the UN Security Council is fundamentally inconsistent with international law. It is a colonial fantasy which has little precedent in UN’s history. It will likely fail and must be rejected by all States and individuals.

UN Resolution 2803 places Donald Trump in control of Gaza and, using vague language, says if certain targets are met there could be a pathway to the creation of a Palestinian state

We are being silenced. Last month, @YouTube suspended the accounts of Al Mezan, @alhaq_org and @pchrgaza and deleted hours of footage documenting Israeli violations of Int. law in a shameful act of censorship. Read more about it in @theintercept

The tech giant deleted the accounts of three prominent Palestinian human rights groups — a capitulation to Trump sanctions.

Israel renews ban prohibiting the ICRC from visiting Palestinian detainees in a blatant violation of international law. This is a clear attempt by Israel to obscure the widespread torture, starvation, and inhumane treatment of Palestinian detainees.

Al Mezan welcomes this week's Advisory Opinion by the ICJ. Israel's genocide in Gaza is causing famine and severe shortages of fuel and medicine. Israel must allow humanitarian agencies, like UNRWA, into Gaza to provide urgently needed aid.

Israel has caused at least 23 telecoms blackouts in Gaza since the genocide started, digitally isolating and silencing Palestinians. During Global Media and Information Literacy Week, we advocate for the digital rights of Palestinians. https://t.co/LrUneHZQtP

The rise of extreme poverty in Gaza is a direct result of Israel's destruction of Gaza's infrastructure & blockade of essential humanitarian aid. Israel is creating the conditions that are driving poverty rates as part of its genocide in Gaza.

Dr. Abu Safiya was not allowed to attend today's hearing and joined via video call. Our lawyer stated he looked desperate to be released. He reiterated that he's done nothing wrong and asked the court: why was he detained in the first place? 📃

🚨BREAKING🚨 Al Mezan's lawyer just confirmed that an Israeli court has rubberstamped the extension of Dr. Abu Safiya's arbitrary detention for 6 more months. This decision strips away any pretense: Dr. Abu Safiya is a hostage, a bargaining chip in ongoing negotiations.

🚨 Tomorrow, an Israeli court will decide whether to extend Dr. Abu Safiya’s arbitrary detention for another 6 months. Al Mezan warns Israel is using him & thousands of Palestinian detainees as bargaining chips, a conduct amounting to hostage-taking. 🔗

We welcome the ceasefire, but stress that it does not end Israel's genocide. Israel must stop inflicting life-threatening conditions meant to destroy Palestinians in Gaza, including via a man-made famine and constant displacement. Full statement➡️

As the genocide in Gaza enters its third year, Israel continues to bomb, starve, and forcibly displace Palestinians. Israel does so with impunity, as the international community refuses to take decisive action to stop this genocide. Full statement:
