- Francesca Albanese, United Nations Special Rapporteur on the Palestinian Territories Occupied Since 1967, held a briefing on her report to the UN Human Rights Council.
Ms Albanese told the council on Tuesday 26 March that she believed that Israel's military campaign in Gaza since 7 October 2023 amounted to genocide and called on countries to immediately impose sanctions and an arms embargo.
Israel, which did not attend the session, rejected her findings.

Thank you so much for this report Mrs Albanese. Free Palestine ❤🇵🇸✊.
Palestine is free. They don’t know it.
Francesca Albanese thank you. You are standing for the truth of justice.
What truth, if she doesn’t mention the babies and elderly still held by satanic Hamas? What kind of human is she??
I commend you Ms. Francesca Albanese. You have done something that no country has done, beside South Africa.
God bless you Madame Albanese 🙏🙏🙏 #stopthegenecide #freethepalestinianpeoplenow
cette femme n'a absolument pas réagi lorsque Bachar a massacré 500.000 de ses propres citoyens. Et cela se prétend TRAVAILLER AU NOM DES DROITS DE L HOMME. Quelle hypocrisie monstrueuse, une arriviste notoire comme tant d'autres.
MAny thanks Mrs Albanese for your honest report.

Albanese is a true human!

@@luiz.nazarioIf thats even true, world bank official's work with every country in the world "briefly". so what's
Your point?
@@OrfeoOnditi-ue5uc She is a Senior Advisor on Migration and Forced Displacement at the non-profit ARAB RENAISSANCE FOR DEMOCRACY. Albanese described the United States as "SUBJUGATED BY THE JEWISH LOBBY" and Europe by a "SENSE OF GUILT ABOUT THE HOLOCAUST", arguing that both "CONDEMN THE OPPRESSED" in the conflict. The Israeli Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Susan Heller Pinto of the Anti-Defamation League, and Michele Taylor, the American ambassador to the Human Rights Council, suggested the comments were antisemitic in nature. SHE SAID THAT SHE HAS NEVER BEEN ANTISEMITIC AND THAT HER CRITICISM OF ISRAEL IS RELATED TO ITS OCCUPATION OF PALESTINIAN TERRITORIES. On 18 October 2022, ALBANESE RECOMMENDED IN HER FIRST REPORT THAT UN MEMBER STATES DEVELOP "A PLAN TO END THE ISRAELI SETTLER-COLONIAL OCCUPATION AND APARTHEID REGIME". The report concluded: "THE VIOLATIONS DESCRIBED IN THE PRESENT REPORT EXPOSE THE NATURE OF THE ISRAELI OCCUPATION, THAT OF AN INTENTIONALLY ACQUISITIVE, SEGREGATIONIST AND REPRESSIVE REGIME DESIGNED TO PREVENT THE REALIZATION OF THE PALESTINIAN PEOPLE'S RIGHT TO SELF-DETERMINATION." In February 2023, a bipartisan group of 18 members of the United States Congress called for Albanese to be removed from her position saying that SHE HAS DEMONSTRATED A CONSISTENT BIAS AGAINST ISRAEL. In July 2023, during the 30th Meeting of the 53rd Regular Session of the UN Human Rights Council, ALBANESE PRESENTED A REPORT ACCUSING ISRAEL OF TURNING THE WEST BANK INTO AN OPEN-AIR PRISON. The report said that since 1967, more than 800,000 Palestinians, including children as young as 12, had been arrested and detained by Israeli authorities. Briefing journalists, ALBANESE SAID "THERE IS NO OTHER WAY TO DEFINE THE REGIME THAT ISRAEL HAS IMPOSED ON THE PALESTINIANS - WHICH IS APARTHEID BY DEFAULT - OTHER THAN AN OPEN-AIR PRISON." Israel was not present for the presentation but rejected the findings. DURING THE ISRAEL-HAMAS WAR, ALBANESE CALLED FOR AN IMMEDIATE CEASEFIRE, WARNING THAT "PALESTINIANS ARE IN GRAVE DANGER OF A MASS ETHNIC CLEANSING." She further stated that the international community must "prevent and protect populations from atrocity crimes", and that "accountability for international crimes committed by Israeli occupation forces and Hamas must also be immediately pursued." IN FEBRUARY 2024, FRENCH PRESIDENT EMMANUEL MACRON DESCRIBED THE 7 OCTOBER ATTACK AS "THE LARGEST ANTISEMITIC MASSACRE OF OUR CENTURY". ALBANESE RESPONDED ON TWITTER THAT "THE VICTIMS OF THE OCTOBER 7 MASSACRE WERE KILLED NOT BECAUSE OF THEIR JUDAISM, BUT IN RESPONSE TO ISRAELI OPPRESSION". The French Foreign Ministry condemned her remarks and the Israeli government declared Albanese PERSONA NON GRATA IN ISRAEL and denied her future entry to the country. In response to the reactions, Albanese said "I regret that some interpreted my tweet as 'justifying' Hamas's crimes, which I have condemned strongly several times. I reject all forms of racism, including antisemitism. However, labeling these crimes as 'antisemitic' obscures the real reason they occurred". ON MARCH 26, ALBANESE SAID BEFORE THE UN HUMAN RIGHTS COUNCIL IN GENEVA THAT SHE BELIEVED ISRAEL'S ACTIONS IN GAZA AMOUNTED TO GENOCIDE. SHE CALLED FOR SANCTIONS AND AN ARMS EMBARGO. She is married to Massimiliano Calì, a World Bank official since 2012 who briefly worked at the United Nations Development Programme IN SUPPORT OF THE PALESTINIAN MINISTRY OF ECONOMY in 2011. (Wikipedia)
Brieflyng: SHE IS NOT IMPARCIAL. SHE’S BEEN ALWAYS PRO-PALESTINIANS AND AGAINST ISRAEL.
@@luiz.nazarioare You "married" to the genocidal regime of racist "place" named Israel??
@@OrfeoOnditi-ue5uc that's a glaring conflict of interest..
i can tell this audience isn't big on logical analysis.. scary metaphysics alarm
better cower behind some out of context fact
How can the world let this horror happen 😢😢
“The world” arranged this.
@@jesuswept1334 she's one of the main culprits
she keeps fueling this conflict with lies and incitement.. and funding terrorist organizations
and perpetuate martyrdom and fake refugees
These journalist are clearly reluctant to admit the validity of her report, which by the way, is simply a systematic outlining of what most people with a conscience and rudimentary observation capacity have also noticed and realized, which is that no matter what legal term you want to use, whether it's genocide or not, there is an atrocity happening before our eyes that demand accountability.
As a European, I'm getting secondhand embarrassment that my fellow "western society" , at least its institutions, are still mostly deluding themselves about what's happening. But as a Swiss, I'm proud that my country continue to be the place where real discussions on issues of ethics, international law, and human rights, are held.
Isra'il politics is very stiff necked about their exclusive theocracy masquerading as a democracy.
Ms. Francesca is the woman for this situation ✊✌️👍
Amazing courage by this incredible woman!
What a smart, tough and wonderful lady!!!!
I didn't expect to find so much integrity at the UN....
Who might make you feel the UN is lacking integrity?...
Albanese is beacon of light, hope and fortitude
May blessings accompany her in accomplishing her noble task on behalf of humanity in a darkening world.
Merci infiniment
🙏🏼🕯🕯🙏🏼
Paris
God bless this woman! 🙏
Impeach Blinken, Austin and Joe!
Yes, exactly, but by who, by the senators bought by AIPAC?
Genocide Joe is collapsing and pulling down his own party
Legend!!! In the face of white settler colonial project displayed in our screens day in and day out! You have said what we feel everyday
You are the wonderwoman. Thank you for the report.
Proud of you Ms Albanese
It appears that there is one person who represents either state or international institutions that is capable of, currently, refering to the cogent, demonstrable and factual realities of this situation and her name is Francesca Albanese. israel is rapidly loosing it's legitimacy as a state actor, either domestically or internationally and Madame Albanese is the only such 'Rapporteur' who has the courage and conviction to ask the question: 'At what point do we draw the line and say that what Israel is willing to accept can no longer be considered either relevant or worthy of consideration?'
🎯🎯🎯🙏
Israel has lost its legitimacy the year this colony was created. They are an occupation entity that has lost its legitimacy the day they expelled Palestinians and stole their land.

THANK YOU MRS ALBANESE❤
The person asking if there is a Isreali government document stating intent of genocide is a question to protect Isreal through rhetorics.
Brava! Francesca Albanese has secured her place in history.

@@luiz.nazario So what?
Good for her! 😉
I am grateful for careful, accurate and clear assessment of Ms Albanese. It shouldn't be an act of courage to state things as they are but it is and Franscesca boldly met the task.
Merci mme ALBANESE !!!! De votre courage ! J espère que beaucoup de gens comme vous parlerons !!!! Il faut que le monde apprenne et sache la VÉRITÉ ! DÉNONCER ! DÉNONCER DÉNONCER !!! CES BARBARES !!!!!!!
Excellent job madame thanks
GOD bless Francesca Albanese ❤
What about reparations to the Palestinian people going back to 1948?
Respect ❤
Francesca Albanese is the echo of human consciousness in the midst of an inhumane world
This woman is so strong. At last some hope of the truth being set out in plain language.
Commendable! Impressive! Utterly honest! Ms Albanese, M. Gutterres and all of UN workers and officials are true heroes!
She is the queen of humanity ❤proud of you, Merci❤❤❤❤
I just saw a brieding with Francesca Albanese speaking English. This means this woman has a command over at least three languages! Brava!
Thank you Francesca Albanese for standing for the truth and justice. Didn't expect to find integrity at the UN. Excellent job. This lady must be protected.
There is much integrity at the UN..You must ask whose interests are served by discrediting the body?
@@deselby6669 there isn't almost any integrity in the un, are you high?
they let ruthless dictators in charge of human rights
they have chi4a puppets are installed all over
This lady is an absolute gem.
Francesca Albanese holds a law degree with honours from the University of Pisa and a Master of Laws in human rights from SOAS University of London, and she is completing her PhD in International Refugee Law at the Law Faculty of Amsterdam University.[2] She is an Affiliate Scholar at the Institute for the Study of International Migration at Georgetown University, a Senior Advisor on Migration and Forced Displacement at the non-profit Arab Renaissance for Democracy and Development (ARDD).
Wow.
And I imagine she's, what, trilingual? At least? Amazing.
She is without a doubt brilliant…if I could only have an ounce of her intelligence 😅
@@snizami She speaks Italian, English, French and Spanish.. her husband lives in Tunisia and her necklace is the arabic word of Love so she probably knows a few Arabic words too hahaa
The look on her face, when the journalist asks about documents admitting to genocide , is priceless.
😅 I love her response! Who IS that aggravating man asking such to an incredulous question?!¡

Beacon of hope
You are a bold and courageous human being. I’m inspired every time I hear you speak. To uphold integrity at any cost.
It's nice to know that there are still decent people like you Mrs Albanese
75 year long apartheid, 16 year long blockade of Gaza and now committing genocide. Pure evil.
Brave lady
Dear Francis you are one of the best speakers for defending the rights of humanity against those who are demolishing this rights ❤❤❤🎉
Great woman
so inspiring and refreshing to see such a wonderfully pleasant and intelligent person with lots of humanity.
Very brave
Discours Réconfortant et Rassurant ! Thank you ! Merci Madame ❤
What an amazing woman
Thank you for your work
Thank you, madame Albania’s!!! You are a hero and a brave woman, a brilliant human with a heart!!!✨💖✨💕
So few sane voices on this. I’m glad to have listened to this one.
To vilify a woman that speaks for peace and against atrocities is what the vilest of the vile would do.
that's the last thing they can do. pathetic
She is an example of integrity, professionalism, dedication and bravery. Thank you for opening the eyes of millions.
I commend her for taking on this mandate and not being afraid to speak out. The lies are indeed overwhelming, and she has the difficult task of explaining that to people who are asleep at the wheel.
Who is this chap who can put such an idiotic question ? Thanks Ms Albanese , you are an hero today
A german of course.
You’re a legend e hoa ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Brilliant lady slamdunks a ridiculous question about written document with clear intent to commit Genocide !
Highly intelligent lady....
You are a brave brave lady is this world of monsters and snakes dear Francesca ❤
May the Almighty keep your safe from them and from succumbing to pressure from the global Mafia❣️
Yes, they are. Yes is one super brave woman.
A real true honorable woman
Ms Albanese epitomizes everything that the UN should represent. Imagine how much better we'd all be if all our politicians and diplomats were so clear-thinking, humanitarian, and unafraid to speak the truth. She should be named International Woman of the Year.
I agree. She is the most amazing woman I've seen in our times! Very bold , intelligent, and honest! If we had more leaders like her in this world, it would be a much better place. May God be with her at all times!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Great Job by you Madame.

Kudos to Francesca Albanese for her honesty and bravery in telling the truth!
Cette dame vaut des milliers d'hommes. Que Dieu te protege!

This guy is just incomprehensibly obtuse!
Grazie Francesca per il tuo coraggio. Grazie di cuore ❤
Thank you Francesca Albanese for you’re integrity,Thank you for standing with humanity❤
Merci madame merci tu est chaste lucide simple est fantastique thanks
Madame Albanese! 💖💖💥✨
Magnificent lady
Stupid question “Do you have a document where war criminals state their crimes”!!!
Random accusations of "antisemitism" have made the term meaningless, to the detriment of true antisemitism which, unfortunately, exists.
Grande Dame elle vaut mille hommes mon respect madame
❤❤❤
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏❤
The only people who should be protected by international law, should be those countries who sign up to it. For those countries or Junta's who do not sign up to It, should be fought on their terms.
If only the native indigenous Palestinian people, were not occupied by European Zionist colonisers 😑
Francesca holds the power of the truth and it shows, brave lady exposing the liars and genocide apologists for what they are.
It is very challenging to speak out about a genocide done by US-Israeli alliance.
Les faits sont les faits.
Respect to Albanese to be able to explain in different languages all her knowledge. Free Palestine🍉
To those journalist, french isn't more a globe language, its a regional language. Sorry 😂
At 26:58,
UN Special Rapporteur says:
'considering 70%, 70% of the victims have been women and children through out the assault on on Gaza...'
Thanks francesca free palestine

Bravo Madame ! You have the congratulations and the grateful thanks of all the powerless and weak in this world who want justice and truth. Your courageous stand is deeply appreciated. We know why Israel has been enabled to act as an international Thug, immune to and above all laws applicable to other nations
