Doha: The United Nations Special Rapporteur on the situation of human rights in the occupied Palestinian territories Francesca Albanese said that the Israeli entity's cutting off electricity supplies to the Gaza Strip threatens genocide.

According to Qatar News Agency, Israel cutting off electricity supplies to Gaza means that there are no functioning desalination stations and therefore no clean water, which is a warning of genocide, Albanese said on X. The UN official stressed that not imposing sanctions or arms embargo against Israel means aiding and assisting it to commit one of the most preventable genocides of the history.
