three special rapporteurs United Nations On Monday, they called on the international community to take action to stop Israel’s “systematic and deliberate” demolition of Palestinian homes, a policy they call “murder.”

In January alone, the Israeli authorities reportedly demolished 132 Palestinian structures in 38 locations in West Bank occupied, including 34 residential buildings, independent experts warn in a statement.

Special Rapporteurs appointed by the Human Rights Council UNbut who do not speak on their behalf—noted that destruction had increased by 135% compared to January 2022.

“The systematic destruction of Palestinian homes, the construction of illegal Israeli settlements, and the systematic denial of building permits to Palestinians in the occupied West Bank is ‘house-killing’,” they said.

In 2022, the special rapporteur on the right to housing, Balakrishnan Rajagopal, called for the term to be recognized as a crime under international law.

“homicide”

“Houseicide” is defined as the mass and arbitrary destruction of residential buildings during a violent conflict.

In a Monday statement, the experts note that “the direct attacks on the homes, schools, homes and water sources of the Palestinian people are nothing more than Israeli attempts to curtail and threaten the Palestinians’ right to self-determination.”

The speakers mentioned in particular the situation in the cities of Masafer and Yatta, as in West Bank busy.

More than 1,100 Palestinians living in these cities face “an imminent risk of forced eviction, arbitrary displacement and demolition of their homes, homes, water and sanitation facilities.”
