CurrentReport Blog According to the US Department of State, the conflict between Israel and Hamas had “a significant and negative impact” on the nation’s human rights situation.
This included the US yearly report that Current Report Blog had seen late on April 22nd, Monday.
The report mentions credible reports of enforced disappearances, arbitrary or illegal killings, torture, and unwarranted arrests of journalists as among the human rights violations.
The Department of State’s 2023 Country Reports on Human Rights Practices provided confirmation of this.
But US Secretary of State Antony Blinken has refuted claims that the nation applies a “double standard” in enforcing the law in response to claims of wrongdoing by the Israeli force in Gaza.
