Indonesia has asked the United Nations to suspend the Israeli occupation's membership over the occupation's deadly war on Gaza that has "claimed many victims."

According to Antara, the Jakarta-based news agency, DPR RI chairperson Mardani Ali Sera urged in a Thursday statement the international community to end the killing of Palestinians and "expel Israel from the UN because the genocide carried out by the Israeli military continues, and more and more victims are falling."

The death toll in Gaza continues to rise as "Israel" continues its war on civilians, killing and wounding them in the hundreds every day. 

A total of 43,764 Palestinians have been killed and 103,490 injured since October 7, 2023. 

Ali Sera emphasized that "Israel has violated the UN Charter, which emphasizes peace, respect for human rights, and international cooperation," adding that the main goal of the UN is to "maintain international peace and security, develop friendly relations between nations, and resolve disputes peacefully."

He also noted that it was time for the UN to "act decisively" by expelling the occupation and isolating it from the international community.

Ali Sera noted that while the Arab League-OIC Summit has moved to freeze "Israel's" membership, Indonesia and other nations have "firmly requested" the occupation be entirely expelled.

The UNRWA Commissioner-General, Philippe Lazzarini, described the humanitarian situation in Gaza as a "dystopian horror", detailing Thursday how people are waiting to be killed by airstrikes in northern Gaza amid "unbelievable" conditions.

Israeli warfare methods 'consistent with genocide': UN committee

A special UN committee accused "Israel" on Thursday of "using starvation as a method of war," ruling that its war on Gaza is consistent with the characteristics of genocide. "Mass civilian casualties and life-threatening conditions intentionally imposed on Palestinians" were highlighted by the United Nations Special Committee in a new report covering events from October 7, 2023, through to July. 

The Committee stated that "Israel" is deliberately killing, starving, and injuring Gazans through its siege and blocking of humanitarian aid, in addition to targeting aid workers.

This is happening despite repeated UN appeals, binding orders from the International Court of Justice, and Security Council resolutions, it warned. 

The Committee, which has been scrutinizing Israeli actions impacting Palestinian rights for decades, revealed that "Israel's" methods "are consistent with the characteristics of genocide."

Meanwhile, a UN-backed study issued over the weekend warned of imminent famine in northern Gaza. 

Thursday's study detailed how prolonged bombing in Gaza had demolished key services and created an environmental disaster with long-term health consequences. According to the research, Israeli troops have used over 25,000 tons of explosives in the Gaza Strip by February of this year, which is "equivalent to two nuclear bombs."

The Committee condemned the aggression that led to the destruction of critical water, sanitation, and food systems, along with environmental contamination, which has created a dire crisis that will harm future generations.
