UN Office of the Special Adviser on the Prevention of Genocide, International Criminal Court Prosecutor, International Court of Justice President: Investigate the Possibility that Israel is Committing the Crime of Genocide Against the Indigenous Palestinian People.
DHAKA was fortunate to have been the site once again for the screening of the International Film Festival, screened at the premises of the National Museum. A total of two hundred and fifty-two films were scheduled for screening from 14–22 January 2023 from seventy-one countries from all over the world
…‘Continuous Coverage,’ a 90 minute documentary by Palestinian director Emtyaz Al-Maghrabi, depicts the human rights situation in Palestine. The film reconstructs the deliberate shooting in cold blood of Shireen-al-Akleh, a Palestinian-American journalist on May 11, 2022 by members of the Israeli Defences Forces while providing news coverage…‘Continuous Coverage’ is not only a film on genocide and shameless acceptance of it by the world powers; it is a part and continuation of the valiant resistance of the Palestinian people. It is a commemoration by one woman film-maker of the valiant fight put up by another woman hero for the cause of her people and her homeland..
The United Nations has indicated the forced expulsion represented crimes against humanity and may have been driven by “genocidal intent,” wrote the site in an article “Asia’s version of Palestine emerging in Bangladesh”.
There is a worldwide health crisis for indigenous peoples and refugees. Indigenous people in various parts of the globe have been hit hard by colonization of their lands, by their languages taken from them, by genocide and by their culture not being valued.
…Issues such as these were major topics of discussion at the fourth People’s Health Assembly in Savar, Bangladesh. The plenary session on “social and physical environments that destroy or promote health” saw presentations that called attention to the major factors that shape the health conditions of the Rohingya refugees in Bangladesh, the people of Palestine, and people affected by ecological degradation and genocides.
The IRO was the first Arab charity on the ground in Cox’s Bazar when tens of thousands of refugees fled into neighbouring Bangladesh to escape the ethnic cleansing and genocide at the hands of the military in Myanmar.
“What I saw reminded me of Palestine,” said Badawi, whose family is from Gaza, but now has German citizenship. “There are many parallels, but at least those in the camps at Cox’s Bazar are safe from continued persecution.” Unlike, he pointed out, Palestinian refugees who are still being brutalised and oppressed today. “However, unless the international community acts swiftly the situation could turn into another intractable situation, which has been allowed to happen to the Palestinians.”
The Algerian MP nodded his agreement. “I am afraid that if this issue with the Rohingya people is not resolved soon it will indeed turn into a crisis like Palestine,” he told Chaudhury.
