The UN’s special rapporteur on Palestine called on people from all over the world to “wake up” regarding the atrocities in Gaza, Anadolu Agency reports.

“Only a deep-seated dehumanisation of Palestinians in Gaza would allow any government to see gravely injured children as a security threat and leaving them to die,” Francesca Albanese said on X.

“German people, fellow Europeans, fellow humans, please, wake up,” she urged.

Her statement came after it was reported that German doctors arranged the evacuation of 32 severely injured children from Gaza, but the government has delayed it for months, not providing visas for their family members over alleged security concerns.
