UN: Gaza rubble rescue indicates war crimes
The United Nations quoted Human Rights Commissioner Volker Türk as saying that retrieving hundreds of bodies from beneath the rubble of destroyed buildings in Gaza raises concerns about the potential commission of war crimes during Israel's ongoing three-year conflict. He emphasized that many of the remains belong to entire families, with a large number of women and children among the dead, and that these recovery operations have reignited fears of possible violations of international humanitarian law. Israeli bombings have destroyed thousands of homes and resulted in approximately 61 million tons of debris, with more than 8,000 people still believed to be trapped under the rubble so far, according to Palestinian estimates. The international community has been called upon to allow investigators access to all areas to gather evidence, after Israel prevented entry of the heavy machinery needed for rubble removal.
