Israeli Occupation Troops Clear 10 Million Tons of Rubble in Gaza to 'Erase Evidence' of Genocide
Euro-Med said the work could erase evidence of alleged genocide and the remains of victims, as 10 million tons of rubble have been moved.
- A report published Monday by The Geneva-based Euro-Mediterranean Human Rights Monitor details how Israeli forces are systematically removing rubble from the Gaza Strip, violating International Court of Justice orders to preserve evidence of genocide.
- The International Court of Justice issued provisional orders in January and May 2024 directing Israel to prevent destruction of evidence related to genocide allegations, yet current rubble-clearing operations appear to undermine these legal mandates.
- Approximately 400 pieces of heavy machinery operated by Israeli civilian companies are active across Gaza, removing at least 10 million tons of rubble from areas encompassing about 66% of the Gaza Strip, Euro-Med said.
- Operations occur without independent oversight or official records, risking the destruction of crucial evidence of genocide and remains of victims before international investigators can survey and document the sites, Euro-Med noted.
- Euro-Med urged states to mandate a halt to rubble seizure and called for reconstruction efforts to be led by Palestinians to ensure protection of evidence and recovery of remains still buried.
