🇵🇸 US explicitly involved in committing war crimes against civilians in the Gaza Strip | EuroMed HR Monitor
Geneva – In a new statement following the revelation that the United States has supplied Israel with 100 2,000-pound “bunker buster” bombs since the start of Israel’s genocide in the Gaza Strip on the Gaza Strip, Euro-Med Human Rights Monitor condemned the US action.
The aforementioned weapons are fortification-piercing bombs, with a warhead (BLU-109) that is known for its ability to deeply penetrate fortified structures before detonating and causing significant casualties among civilians. As such, their use is strictly forbidden in civilian and residential areas, Euro-Med Monitor said.

🇵🇸 Dutch rights groups take government to court over arms to Israel | Middle East Eye –
Human rights groups are challenging the Dutch government in court, arguing it is complicit in alleged Israeli violations of international law in Gaza by supplying F-35 fighter jet parts.
The suit, brought by Oxfam Novib, PAX and The Rights Forum, comes after a Dutch newspaper reported that the government allowed a delivery of the components despite foreign ministry lawyers warning that Israel was committing serious violations of humanitarian law.
The components, made by the #US-based #LockheedMartin, are stored at a warehouse in the #Netherlands and then shipped to #Israel and other countries.
"The government allowed itself to be blackmailed by Israel and the US - at the expense of Palestinian lives," The Rights Forum has said.

🇵🇸 U.S. spies have ‘wide range’ of facilities on UK’s Cyprus base near Gaza—and share material ‘daily’ with Israel | Declassified UK
US spies have widespread access to Britain’s bases on Cyprus and share information ‘daily’ with their Israeli counterparts, leaked top secret documents show.
The British so-called Sovereign Base Areas (#SBA) on Cyprus, which comprise 3% of the island’s landmass, sit just 200 miles from #Gaza. The bases are said to be the largest British #intelligence facilities outside of the #UK, although they have never been officially acknowledged.
“Cyprus hosts a wide range of UK and US intelligence facilities”, notes a top secret document from #GCHQ, Britain’s largest spy agency. The document adds: “#Cyprus collection facilities are acknowledged by #NSA as important assets”.
The main US spy agency working on the British territory in Cyprus is the National Security Agency (NSA).

🇵🇸 The Companies Arming Israel And Their Financiers | June 2024
This #report focuses on the relationships between #European (#EU) financial institutions and companies supplying #arms to Israel.
By selling #arms to Israel, arms companies run a high risk of facilitating ongoing severe violations of international humanitarian law. The banks, pension funds, insurers and other asset managers financing these companies by providing credits or holding shares or bonds have a clear responsibility to prevent facilitating
violations.
Arms companies’ supply of #weapons to Israel has been considered high-risk for years, as these weapons have been used to enforce the #occupation and related violations of international humanitarian law and of human rights law in #Gaza and the #WestBank,
including #EastJerusalem.

🇵🇸 Partners in Crime EU Complicity In Israel’s Genocide In Gaza | TNI
"Since 7 October 2023 , the #EU has provided political cover and material support for Israel. This has continued through almost eight months of unrelenting bombardment with almost 48,291 people killed, the #ForcedDisplacement of 2.3 million people, the fastest descent into starvation of an entire population ever recorded and the total destruction of #Gaza’s civilian infrastructure including #homes, #hospitals, #schools and #universities, places of worship and #bakeries.
This support continued as Israel was placed on trial for genocide at the International Court of Justice (#ICJ) in The #Hague and as the International Criminal Court (#ICC) announced that it would seek arrest warrants for Israel’s prime minister Benjamin #Netanyahu and defence minister Yoav Gallant..
Particularly in light of the ICJ’s interim ruling which put all states on notice of a plausible case of #genocide, makes the EU directly #complicit in it."
