UN: Israel's Orders to Transfer Palestinians from Rafah are Inhumane

The UN High Commissioner for Human Rights, Volker Turk, stated on Monday that "Israel's orders to transfer Palestinians from Rafah are inhumane and threaten to expose them to further danger and misery." He added in a statement: "Residents of Gaza are still being subjected to bombings, diseases, and even famine. Today, they were told they must move again as Israeli military operations escalate in Rafah... this is inhumane."
