Israeli ground offensive continues; Saudi Arabia and Iran call for Gaza ceasefire; 300,000 pro-Palestinian protestors march in London. Follow updates here.
A visiting United Nations human rights expert has reiterated calls for an embargo on arms supply to the Israeli-Palestine war, singling out Australia as complicit. Francesca Albanese, the United Nations Special Rapporteur on the situation of human rights in the Palestinian Territory occupied since 1967, warned there is a risk violence could escalate in the weeks and months ahead during a speech in Adelaide.
During the wide-ranging speech she also hit out at western members of the UN who were “in the margins, muttering inaudible words of condemnation for Israel” over the conflict. It comes days after Palestinian human rights groups launched legal action in the Federal Court seeking records of weapons exports granted by Defence Minister Richard Marles since October 7, when the conflict was reignited.
