UN aid chief fears of ‘mass transfer’ of people from G-a-z-a

United Nations Under-Secretary-General for Humanitarian Affairs and Emergency Relief Coordinator (OCHA) Martin Griffiths (pictured) said that recent comments by Israeli officials regarding the resettlement of Palestinians spark fears of mass deportation of people from Gaza.

“These statements raise grave concerns about the possible forcible mass transfer or deportation of the Palestinian population from the Gaza Strip, something that would be strictly prohibited under international law,” Griffiths stressed during a speech at the UN Security Council meeting. “Any attempt to change the demographic composition of Gaza must be firmly rejected,” he added.

The UN aid chief underscored that the Health system in Gaza is “in a state of collapse”, and stressed that 148 UN and NGO staff members were killed since the beginning of the war.
