"UN Experts Call for Immediate Arms Embargo on Israel Amid Gaza Conflict"

More than two dozen U.N. rights experts are calling for an arms embargo on Israel, citing the risk of genocide in Gaza and ongoing harm to civilians. The U.S. is facing scrutiny over its military aid to Israel, with four Senate Democrats urging the Biden administration to ensure aid does not worsen the situation. The U.N. Human Rights Office has issued a report calling for accountability for violations committed by all sides in Israel, Gaza, and the occupied West Bank, including unlawful killings and possible war crimes. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has proposed indefinite military control over Gaza, while U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken has stated that Israeli settlements in the West Bank are inconsistent with international law.
