The International Committee of the Red Cross has issued a rare policy statement criticizing Israel’s occupation of the West Bank and Gaza Strip. In a new report, the Red Cross says the Israeli government is denying millions of Palestinians “their human dignity.” The Red Cross cites Israel’s continued system of closures, settlements, checkpoints, bulldozings and military attacks. Three Palestinians were killed in an Israeli air strike in Gaza on Thursday.
