As a member of #Israel's current right-wing extremist government, #BezalelSmotrich has announced the total destruction of the #Gaza strip and the #displacement of the entire population.
Let me be very clear: Smotrich is publicly announcing a #warcrime about to be committed. This is utterly unacceptable. The only way forward is a two state solution, all other options will end in a tragedy and more violence. #NearEast

„The U.N. Human Rights Office accused Israel on Friday of violating international law by forcibly displacing Palestinians in Gaza under "mandatory evacuation orders".
The Israeli army has issued what the U.N. described as 10 mandatory evacuation orders (…) since it resumed its war against Hamas on March 18, ending a two-month-old ceasefire amid rows over terms for extending it.“

„Nearly 125,000 people have been displaced in recent days as they fled Israeli bombardment & ground operations, the U.N. agency for Palestinian refugees said Monday, before the latest evacuation orders. The U. N. estimates that over the past week, Israel has issued evacuation notices for more than 14% of the enclave, along with “vast ‘no go’ areas along the border” (…).“

Palestinians in eastern Gaza pushed into forced displacement yet again
As of now, there is not a single safe place across Gaza. People are dying inside their homes, they’re dying inside public facilities, and they’re dying inside schools they’ve turned to for shelter.

The #Russia - #Ukraine #war three years later.
Russia’s #losses: 564,000 people.
Ukraine’s population has decreased by 10 million. No, these aren’t all #deaths - most of this is due to #displacement. But it is comparable to the losses some countries experienced during World War II.
Ukraine’s #mortality rate is 18.6 per 1,000 people, the highest in the world - higher than in countries facing absolute catastrophe, including famine-stricken African nations.
