Francesca Albanese – Israeli strikes on Gaza kill hundreds

19 March 2025

The ceasefire between Hamas and Israel has been broken, as Israel launched overnight air strikes on Gaza that Hamas says has killed more than 400 people – sparking fears the region could be plunged into all out war once again

Francesca Albanese is the United Nations Special Rapporteur on the Occupied Palestinian Territories and her opinions have sparked controversy in the past. Israel officially banned her from entering the country in February 2024 after she wrote in a tweet “the victims of 7/10 were not killed because of their Judaism, but in response to Israel’s oppression”.

Israeli officials condemned these words as “anti-semitic” and called on the UN to “public disavow” Ms Albanese.
