The United Nations Human Rights Council will hold an urgent debate in Geneva on Tuesday on Israel’s September 9 attack targeting Hamas leaders in Qatar, the Council said on Monday.
The September 9 airstrike, which Hamas says killed five of its members but not its leadership, has prompted U.S.-allied Gulf Arab states to close ranks, adding to strains in ties between the United Arab Emirates and Israel, which normalised relations in 2020.
The debate was requested by Pakistan on behalf of member states of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC), and by Kuwait on behalf of the Gulf Cooperation Council.
