2,101 Gazans killed – UN estimates 70% of deaths are civilians
7 civilians killed in Israel
64 Israeli soldiers killed
Figures as of 26 Aug 14. Sources: PMH, OCHA, IDF
UN states that more than 17,000 buildings in Gaza have been destroyed or severely damaged, and that there are at least 475,000 internally displaced people (IDPs), more than a quarter of the territory’s population.
When will those responsible for these atrocities be brought before the ICC on charges of war crimes?
The UN General Assembly needs to convene, in plenary session, to indict those alleged guilty. And it needs to act without delay.
