UN criticised for failing to stop 'genocide' in Gaza

A senior UN official strongly criticised the UN in a retirement letter for not stopping what he called “a genocide unfolding before our eyes” in Gaza.

Craig Mokhiber, a US human rights lawyer, claimed “the current wholesale slaughter of the Palestinian people” is rooted in decades of persecution by Israel “based entirely upon their status as Arabs and coupled with explicit statements of intent by leaders in the Israeli government and military.”

Mokhiber left his job heading the New York office of the Office of the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights on 31 October.
