#IHL

Aktuell wird im Netz diskutiert, ob die Veröffentlichung des Videos durch Selensky 🇺🇦, mit dem dieser die Mitwirkung von (inzwischen gefangengenommenen) chinesischen Staatsbürgern in der russischen Armee darstellt, gegen das Verbot der entwürdigenden öffentlichen Darstellung von Kriegsgefangenen verstoßen könnte. Das Video ist z.B. bei der @Tagesschau zu finden.
Meine persönliche Meinung hierzu:
Da #China nicht im Krieg mit der #Ukraine ist, können Chinesen in der russischen Armee wohl nur Söldner sein. Söldner sind aber nach Art. 47 des Ersten Zusatzprotokolls zu den Genfer Konventionen von 1977 weder Kombattanten noch Kriegsgefangene. Daher haben sie im Krieg oder nach ihrer Gefangennahme keine Privilegien und für den Umgang mit ihnen gelten nur die elementarsten (humanitären) Grundsätze (Art. 75 ZP I). Selensky hat also mit der Veröffentlichung aus meiner Sicht nicht gegen das Humanitäre Völkerrecht #HVR verstoßen.
Endgültig würde diese Frage jedoch wohl durch den #IStGH zu klären sein.

the spectacleSusan Ville on the spectacleI was an active first responder myself, I am a journalist, have been working in the field of civil defence and research for many years. My first assignment was in 1990 during Gulf war in Syria, back then, I was in my twenties and didn't understand why the Jewish elder lady next to me said "I hate them" as we both stood at the border fence observing ISR tanks moving around. I am German, educated to be tolerant and guilty. For more than three decades I've been trying my best to explain ordinary people that political speeches have nothing to do with the reality on the ground. They read my articles, but didn't believe. After reading this morning the report of my colleague about the attack on the media tent in Gaza, I had to have a break. I lost friends and colleagues in Iraq, Syria, in the Kosovo, in Lebanon. Every media worker from Palestine I know, and who lives in the diaspora, lost a family member, or two, or more. I witnessed the suffering of the civilian population in Syria, amputated children, victims of mines and left ordnance, everywhere in the streets. I really thought, I can handle Gaza. But today I just felt sick, angry and lost. I swear to the Almighty, there will be justice for the victims. That is my only goal now. I would rather die than allowing them to get away with a genocide, another genocide committed by German helpers. No, they can't and won't destroy the foundation of civilization, basic human rights and ethical norms, it won't happen. I'm prepared for a long lasting struggle, a battle, a war, yes, but we will succeed. Thank you, Deaglan - our solid rock to cling tight on to (hope) in this ocean of darkness, waiting for the life-saving rescue ship. -- Susan P.S. I share your postings on mastodon, because I left all US social surveillance platforms ten years ago.

Netanyahu’s plane avoided flying over countries that could enforce #icc warrant: Report AJ

⚠️ The aircraft carrying the ISR PM from Hungary to the US flew 400km (248 miles) further than the normal route to avoid the #airspace of several countries that could enforce an arrest warrant issued by the International Criminal Court, according to the Haaretz newspaper.

🆘 Amman – The blockade of humanitarian aid is having terrible consequences for one million #children in the #gaza strip

No aid has been allowed into the Gaza Strip since 2 March 2025 – representing the longest period of aid blockage since the start of the attacks – leading to shortages of food, safe water, shelter, and medical supplies. #ihl

The nature of Israel’s crimes in the #gaza strip must be denounced, particularly the crimes’ horrifying scope, methodical execution, and wide-ranging effects, which surpass those of armed groups like ISIS. While the crimes committed by ISIS have been widely denounced by the international community, the same community is now mostly silent—and therefore complicit—as Israel pursues a campaign of declared #genocide (...)

Falls sich die Situation so bestätigt, wie sie hier in dem vom #zdf veröffentlichten Video zdf.de/nachrichten/politik/aus zu erkennen ist, dürfte es sich eindeutig um einen völkerrechtswidrigen Übergriff israelischer Truppenteile auf Kräfte des Roten Kreuzes / Roten Halbmonds #redcrossredcrescent handeln. Dabei sind Kameradinnen und Kameraden des Palästinensischen Roten Halbmonds #PRCS ums Leben gekommen, eindeutig gekennzeichnete, vom #DRK zur Verfügung gestellte Einsatzfahrzeuge wurden zerstört.
Die israelische Regierung muss diesen Übergriff nun rasch und vollständig aufklären, die betreffenden Militärpersonen gehören wegen #Kriegsverbrechen und Verstoßes gegen das Humanitäre Völkerrecht #HVR / International Humanitarian Law #IHL vor Gericht gestellt!
Übrigens: die betreffenden Soldaten könnten, falls Israel nicht tätig wird, jederzeit auch in #Deutschland nach unserem #Völkerstrafgesetzbuch vor Gericht gestellt werden.

ZDFheute · Gaza-Helfer tot: Video weckt Zweifel an MilitärdarstellungBy ZDFheute

This is a logic explanation why the left wing #dogma supports a colonial project of ethnic cleansing, which is a crime under today's international law - actually (!?)

But with the whole spectrum of political ideologies working against Palestine (that is why there is no real action implemented), only the ones following humanity, with their flag flying high above all parties' motives can and must succeed to save a people. #ihl

⚠️ 📢 The Palestinian Presidency has strongly warned about the recent Israeli orders for the forced evacuation of the entire city of #rafah, which comes amidst a tragic toll of over 80 Palestinians killed by the Israeli war machine since the start of #eidulfitr

In a statement, the Presidency condemned the ISR displacement orders as illegal and a clear violation of international law.

Another article on the actual scandal within #signalscandal being the activity they were coordinating. Not the use of an app.


Trump's 'America Second' strategy of subjugating itself to Israel - in this case bombing targets that present no threat to the US in order to punish a group standing up to Israeli aggression against Palestinians, may likely be making US citizens less safe, not more. While breaking domestic law in defiance of international law. Sounds awfully familiar to Australian foreign policy.

In #Australia the relentless participation in US wars in the name of 'security' and 'alliance commitments' has demonstrably eroded security. While driving up costs and straining regional relationships. All while breaking laws, norms and conventions on behalf of foreign interests. While mouthing glib motherhood statements about 'the Rule of Law'. Empire sucks.

"Historically, the president has only been permitted to unilaterally order US forces to wage war in self-defense — if, say, US troops or civilians come under attack somewhere. But just as with Biden’s own Yemen strikes, that’s not what has happened here. Trump ordered these strikes in response to the Houthis threatening to resume attacks on *Israeli shipping. It’s worth noting, too, that the Houthis’ stated reason for restarting this blockade is as a response to Israel breaking the terms of the Gaza cease-fire and once more blocking humanitarian aid from entering the territory."

jacobin.comThe Real Yemen Scandal Has Zero to Do With Jeffrey GoldbergThe press is mostly framing the Yemen group chat scandal as a story of incompetence. There’s little attention being paid to the deadliness, illegality, and ineffectiveness of the strikes themselves.
