UNSC must sanction ‘enemy of humanity’ for Gaza genocide, urges Algeria's UN envoy

At an emergency UNSC session addressing Israel's planned seizure of Gaza City and forced displacement of 1 million Palestinians, Algeria's Ambassador Amar Bendjama delivered a blistering condemnation. He accused Israel of "genocidal ethnic cleansing", citing 22 months of atrocities - 18,000 children killed, 12,000 women dead, and starvation deployed as a weapon. "Israel treats Palestinians as 'human animals'," he declared, lambasting the UNSC's silence as complicity. "This council must act decisively under Chapter 7 - sanction the enemy of humanity," Bendjama demanded, invoking the UN's strongest enforcement powers. While the ICJ investigates genocide, he vowed: "Palestinians, like olive trees, will regrow from their roots."
