human rights watch _ role they often have? no. human rights watch has _ role they often have? no. an rights watch has called on - role they often have? no. human rights watch has called on the - rights watch has called on the international, the country's army of the warring parties to stop, suspend arms transfers and military assistance to the israeli military, hamas and islamichhad because of the real risk those weapons will be used to permit further abuses. the united states, uk, canada and germany are arming israel and they should stop. iran is arming hamas and islamichhad and it should stop. if those measures were taken it would likely have an immediate influence on the conduct of the warring parties and perhaps they would take international humanitarian law and in particular protections for civilians, more seriously. protections for civilians, more seriously-— a number of aid agencies — including some administered by the united nations — had been hoping to use the pause in fighting to step up deliveries of humanitarian supplies to gaza. some trucks were able to cross through r

in isel -- [inaudible] aid for gaza, all -- [inaudible] -- israel and palestine director of human rights watchcommissioner for human rights has said israel may be guilty of war crimes and gaza. prime minister benjamin netanyahu on meet the press this morning called those comments hogwash, and said israel doesn't target civilians, and any innocence who die in gaza are, quote, collateral damage. what's your response? human rights watch's response to that? >> there's no doubt that the israeli government has committed war crimes. and let's be clear. the israeli government was create committing crimes against humanity against palestinians before october 7th. and we've seen more war crimes taking place after october 7th. when you cut electricity, water, fuel, medicine and food to an entire population, to more than 2.2 million people, half of whom are children, for the heinous acts of individual fighters, that is textbook collective punishment, which is a war crime. using starvation as a weapon of war is a war crime. to block entirely the entry of lifesaving aid, you can monitor under the law, but no

all right, thank you for having our investigation as human rights watch and indicated that the king's race and other uses on an after september 28th of 2009 price to those crimes against humanity. this means that it uses right not the option of a group of growth august soldiers, but rather suggest that the crimes were opinionated and organized. this has been supported by the absence of many frank publication by the doing strangers were processing peacefully and combination with the organized manner in which the security forces carried off the dock. uh the failure to use the recent means of the crowd dispersed. so the presence of officials, including a minister, fast with a security responsibilities, and the commission of inquiry has reached some of their conclusions. and let's all come to the trial that has now resumed. you've been following it. can you bring us up to speed on, on what's image so far? yes. the 2009 union bhaskar tire was ok, 13 years after the massacre was committed to try and move into the criminal responsibility. or excuse me, a move in for government ministers as a

human rights watch's response to that? s committed war crimes. and let's be clear. the israeli government was create committing crimes against humanity against palestinians before october 7th. and we've seen more war crimes taking place after october 7th. when you cut electricity, water, fuel, medicine and food to an entire population, to more than 2. 2 million people, half of whom are children, for the heinous acts of individual fighters, that is textbook collective punishment, which is a war crime. using starvation as a weapon of war is a war crime. to block entirely the entry of lifesaving aid, you can monitor under the law, but not black, that is also a war crime. these really government has also bombed hospitals, schools, u. n. facilities, they've turned entire neighborhoods, or large parts of neighborhoods, into rubble. they've carried out -- they've used twice phosphorus, they carried that out -- unlawful strengths on human rights watch, and other human rights organizations have documented. we have a situation where

the munitions that it says it found inside of the al shifa hospital as well, and what is the human rights watch concern there? >> human rights watch is looking at the lenses of the humanitarian law. it is called it humanitarian law, because it is basic principles ohf humanitarian law that needs to be uphold but we are finding that all parties are defiling those laws. so when israeli is firing the rocket, it is indiscriminately firing those rockets. but if hamas has been hiding weapons inside of the hospitals, and if that is true, then it is a grave violation of the humanitarian laws. and so the fact that one party is committing war crime, it does not mean that you can commit war crime. hospitals are not stripped of the special protection of humanitarian laws, because of presence of fighters. there are laws that must be followed, and they can only be attacked if they are violating the humanitarian law, and there has to be warnings that have to be given. and either no warnings were given, and they told people to leave, and there was no safe place to go or no safe way to go, and some of the people

and so that freed this treatment of black people and pottage. human rights watch and amnesty international accused israel of being in a parted state. these really government states, those accusations are biased, inaccurate, and anti semitic. but here in south africa, the birthplace of the tomb. a party became has been a t feature of protests, of africa with our own just sort of project and colonialism. we should a better than anyone else. but the need to start with the most modular lives in order to ensure that palestine is free and we need to do all parts of the international community to, to stand with them. among those at the protest or jewish south africans who feel solidarity with the palestinians affected by the ongoing conflict or the south african government to their commitments, to the palace in their struggle. now they've got to actually commit to what it is that they're saying. and so they need to do the thing and to show that they support is not just left the routing agency as piece to support for palestinians in gaza and the west bank. the party has long had strong ties with d

let's get more from omar shakir of human rights watch. thanks for joining us. what's your assessment of what's happening inside the al shifa snapshot what are you hearing from people on the ground? >> well, we're hearing from people on the ground is that you have displaced people. you have patients whose lives hang in the balance. as of yesterday 40 patients had died because fuel has run out. fuel has not been at the hospital for three days so you have babies on incubators that have died. you have dialysis patients that aren't able to receive those services. israeli soldiers are in the hospital. doctors are trying to continue to save lives. they have been unable to safely evacuate or they have chosen to stay to treat the patients who aren't able to evacuate themselves, and there's a situation where now there are bodies piling up that are not able to be buried. doctors have spoken to us about building mass graves in the hospitals so that those bodies can be safely given the dignity that they deserve. it's a dire situation. every minute the risks to the patients

and for more of your joined by deputy is your director of human rights watch. fail robinson field. what is making in the nations on entre so, resistance to accepting, go ahead and get refugees as well. i think the local authorities are higher in park because they've been getting little or no support from the national government into card which has been consistently sure against duties towards receiving refugees and asylum seekers. so the ad so nice. i've been on their own for quite some time, and actually even some to prosecute it for helping roving about people in the past . so i think right now it's a reaction as much towards arranged as to the national government and indonesia, which has consistently been a difficult partner that has been more inclined to think about pushing boats on rather than helping them. but so individual isn't a signatory to the 1951 reference. your convention good took off a simply say it won't accept anymore or he can get references and student legally be correct. well, i mean, they would be legally correct and morally wrong. uh, you know, there is a exp
