UN: Halting human rights work harms Palestinian children
The United Nations Children's Committee has warned of the worsening level of protection for Palestinian children in the occupied territories, including Gaza and the West Bank, as a result of the suppressive practices carried out by the Israeli occupation. These include raids, travel bans, financial penalties, and threats of arrest and destruction. The committee confirmed that these measures have led to the halt or reduction of work by human rights organizations defending children's rights, thereby increasing the risks to children's lives and obstructing efforts to protect their rights. It called on the occupation to lift restrictions, allow organizations to operate independently and safely, and urged the international community to hold those responsible for these violations accountable.
