Point de presse bihebdomadaire - 12 janvier 2024


POINT DE PRESSE DU SERVICE D'INFORMATION DES NATIONS UNIES

12 janvier 2024

Alessandra Vellucci du Service d'information des Nations Unies (UNIS) à Genève, a présidé le point de presse hybride, auquel ont participé les porte-parole et les représentants du Haut-Commissariat des Nations Unies aux droits de l'homme, du Bureau de la coordination des affaires humanitaires, du Fonds des Nations Unies pour l'enfance, de l'Organisation mondiale de la santé et de l'Organisation météorologique mondiale.

Situation en Israël et dans le territoire palestinien occupé, 100 jours plus tard

Elizabeth Throssell, pour le Haut-Commissariat des Nations Unies aux droits de l'homme (HCDH), a déclaré que ce dimanche marquerait les 100 jours depuis que le Hamas et d'autres groupes armés palestiniens avaient lancé leur attaque horrible contre Israël, au cours de laquelle 1 200 personnes, principalement des Israéliens, ont été tuées et environ 250 prises en otage. Au cours des 14 dernières semaines, alors qu'Israël avait mené une riposte militaire, plus de 23 000 Palestiniens avaient été tués, environ deux tiers d'entre eux étant des femmes et des enfants. Comme l'avait souligné à plusieurs reprises le Haut-Commissaire des Nations Unies aux droits de l'homme, Volker Türk, il fallait un cessez-le-feu immédiat pour des raisons humanitaires et de droits de l'homme. Le HCDH avait souligné à plusieurs reprises les manquements récurrents d'Israël à respecter les principes fondamentaux du droit international humanitaire pendant les hostilités, soulignant que les violations de ces obligations risquaient de les exposer à des poursuites pour crimes de guerre.
