Gaza: Human Rights
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, whether the UN has submitted a request to allow forensic investigations to be carried out in Gaza in connection with alleged human rights abuses.
Answered by Mr Hamish Falconer
The Foreign Secretary has spoken directly to her Israeli counterparts about reports of human rights abuses in Gaza, and has urged them to facilitate access for impartial organisations to be able to conduct independent investigations into all allegations, and ensure perpetrators are held to account. Accountability and transparency will be vital components of the next phase of the ceasefire.
