UN official warns against removing Gaza rubble

The United Nations report warns that Israel's removal of debris from Gaza could erase evidence of war crimes and hinder identification of victims of the ongoing conflict since October 2023. The war has resulted in an accumulation of approximately 61 million tons of rubble, and its removal could take up to seven years, amid concerns about the involvement of Israeli companies in the debris clearance operations. Experts also emphasize the importance of collecting evidence before clearing the debris to document crimes and protect victims' rights, as ongoing killing and destruction in the region have left over 73,000 dead and hundreds of thousands injured.
