The deputy spokesperson for the top of the UN, Farhan Haq, says “all of the parties” who’ve the ability to permit investigators access into Gaza should comply with any potential impartial probe into the mass graves found within the neighborhood of Gaza’s two largest hospitals.
More than 300 our bodies have been recovered so removed from mass graves at Khan Younis’s Nasser Hospital, and greater than 380 our bodies have been recovered from Gaza City’s al-Shifa Medical Complex, based on civil defence crews. International outcry and calls for from an impartial probe are rapidly rising.
“For any investigations to be effective, all of the parties in the area that control access sufficient to conduct investigations would need to agree to it,” Haq advised Al Jazeera, when questioned at a press briefing by our reporter Gabriel Elizondo.
This means Israel, which has been extensively accused of being accountable for the mass graves, should comply with cooperate with the investigation.
“There’s always difficulties in terms of places where conflict has occurred, to get the access we need, but ultimately for any investigation to be meaningful, you need that access,” Haq mentioned.
Haq reiterated that an “independent, effective and transparent investigation” into the killings at Nasser and al-Shifa hospitals have to be carried out.
