Francesca Albanese Calls for Action to End Palestinian Oppression
Francesca Albanese, UN Special Rapporteur on the situation of human rights in the Palestinian Territory occupied since 1967, urges everyone to do more to end the oppression of Palestinians.
Bringing the case to the ICJ … It’s been enormous. South Africa went ahead alone and risked huge repercussions from the United States and others
Albanese spoke at the Groote Kerk in Cape Town, emphasizing that taking Israel to the International Court of Justice was a significant step, but more can be done to isolate Israel. She addressed a crowd of about a thousand people on Sunday, following her lecture at the Nelson Mandela Annual Lecture in Johannesburg.
Albanese, a lawyer specializing in human rights and the Middle East, grew up in Southern Italy. She is committed to promoting human rights in the occupied Palestinian Territory.
