Francesca Albanese, the UN’s special rapporteur on human rights in the occupied Palestinian territory, has added her voice to a call for Israel to be unseated from the United Nations, Al Jazeera reports.

Reposting an earlier call on social media for the “unseating” of Israel by the UN’s special rapporteur on the right to adequate housing, Albanese said it was “time” to remove Israel from the world body.

UN rapporteur on housing Balakrishnan Rajagopal said on Tuesday that it was “high time” to take action as Israel continued its “criminal attacks” on the UN agency for Palestinian refugees (UNRWA) in Gaza “without any consequences”.

Israel should be unseated “from the UN, as was done with apartheid South Africa”, Rajagopal said in a post on social media.
