Israel does not issue visas to UN staff

According to the report of Fars News Agency International Group, the Israeli regime plans not to renew the visa of one of the UN employees, while it will refuse to issue visas for another employee of this organization.

Reports published by UN agencies about the situation of Gaza residents, which sometimes do not exceed the limits of providing statistics, have angered the Israeli authorities. More than 20,000 people have been martyred in Israel’s attacks in Gaza so far, most of them civilians. (former) wrote: “We will cut off our cooperation with those who cooperate with the terrorist organization Hamas. We will no longer remain silent in the face of the hypocrisy of the United Nations.”

In addition, the Israeli Foreign Minister described the behavior of the United Nations after the events of October 7 as “shameful.”

On October 7, Hamas launched the so-called “Al-Aqsa Storm” operation in response to more than seven decades of occupation of Palestine and nearly two decades of encircling Gaza and imprisoning and torturing thousands of Palestinians.

This operation was one of the deadliest attacks against this regime. Hamas fighters penetrated into the occupied territories at several points of the border fences, attacked the villages and besides killing a large number of Israelis, captured a number of them.

Organization The nations have criticized Hamas for carrying out the attacks on October 7 and have repeatedly demanded the release of the prisoners who were arrested by Hamas on this day. The officials of this organization, despite this, have published field reports of Israeli attacks on residential areas, schools and hospitals.

More than 100 journalists, 270 medical staff and at least 134 UN staff have been killed in the Israeli attacks in Gaza.

Antonio Guterres, the Secretary General of the United Nations, has repeatedly called for a ceasefire and emphasized the need to address the dire humanitarian situation in Gaza. During the past days, the United Nations, aid organizations and human rights groups have warned that the Palestinians are at risk of dying of hunger. According to Article 99 of the UN Charter, Gaza demanded a meeting to discuss the situation in Gaza.

Article 99 is one of the special powers granted to the Secretary General in the UN Charter. . This paragraph authorizes the Secretary General to call for a meeting of the members of the Security Council to announce a warning about new threats to international peace and security. It has not been able to take the necessary measures to establish a ceasefire in Gaza. The United States, as the main supporter of Israel, has so far prevented the adoption of any resolution calling for a cease-fire in Gaza. He had supported the ceasefire. In addition, a few days ago, the Security Council, with the US abstaining, approved a resolution that supports the increase in aid to Gaza, but lacks a clause regarding a ceasefire.

Although triggering Article 99 did not help to end the conflicts in Gaza, analysts said that Guterres’ use of it shows the depth of the Israeli regime’s crimes in Gaza. This paragraph has been used only four times before – (Congo (1960), East Pakistan (1971), Iran (1979) and Lebanon (1989).

Despite this, on Monday, Cohen accused the UN Secretary General, the UN Human Rights Commissioner and the UN Women’s Organization of “legitimizing war crimes and crimes against humanity”.
