The UN’s humanitarian office in Palestine has urged Israel to cease its “practices of unnecessary and disproportionate use of force” after its forces killed 11 Palestinians in Jenin in “apparent unlawful killings” between Dec 12-14.
In a statement posted on X, the UN office said the Israeli forces also “destroyed homes, shops, and other civilian infrastructure and arrested at least 800 Palestinians, raising concerns about collective punishment”.
“Such excessive use of force is incompatible with law enforcement and violates international human rights law and the law of occupation under which Israel has the obligation to protect civilians,” it added.
