The United Nations Special Rapporteur on the right to health, Tlaleng Mofokeng, said that the Israeli attacks and crimes taking place in the Gaza Strip constitute psychological terrorism and part of a genocidal plan, noting the deterioration of the mental health of the residents of the Gaza Strip.
The UN official warned that the level of anxiety and shock among Gazans had reached abnormal levels, and pointed to the deterioration of access to health care services and treatment in the besieged and stricken Strip.
She expressed her regret at the birth of a generation of children in Gaza who died even before they obtained their birth certificates.
This comes one year after the outbreak of the ongoing war of extermination carried out by Israel in Gaza with American support, which to date has resulted in more than 139,000 Palestinian martyrs and wounded, and more than 10,000 missing, amid massive destruction and famine that killed dozens of children and the elderly.
Israel continues its war of genocide, ignoring the UN Security Council resolution to end it immediately, and the orders of the International Court of Justice to take measures to prevent acts of genocide and improve the dire humanitarian situation in the Gaza Strip.
Since last September 23, Israel has expanded the scope of the genocide it is committing in Gaza, to include most of Lebanon’s regions, including the capital, Beirut, through air raids of unprecedented violence and intensity. It also began a ground incursion into its south, ignoring international warnings and UN resolutions.
