联合国专家克里斯·西多蒂(Chris Sidoti)敦促澳大利亚终止与以色列的防御关系, 警告继续合作会使澳大利亚成为种族灭绝的同谋, A UN expert, Chris Sidoti, has urged Australia to end defence ties with Israel, warning continued cooperation could make Australia complicit in genocide, citing a UN report concluding Israel’s actions in Gaza amount to genocide. 他呼吁关闭澳大利亚耶路撒冷办事处,实行更严格的制裁,阻止澳大利亚制造的零部件,特别是F-35喷气式飞机用于以色列的军事行动。 He called for closing Australia’s Jerusalem office, imposing stricter sanctions, and blocking Australian-made parts from being used in Israeli military operations, especially F-35 jets. 尽管澳大利亚承认巴勒斯坦并支持美国支持的和平计划,但Sidoti说法律义务大于经济利益,并批评依赖洛克希德·马丁的供应链是不够的。 Despite Australia’s recognition of Palestine and support for a US-backed peace plan, Sidoti said legal obligations outweigh economic interests and criticized reliance on Lockheed Martin’s supply chain as insufficient. 哈马斯于2023年10月发动攻击,造成1 200名以色列人死亡,250名人质被扣为人质,引发了这场冲突。 据卫生官员说,这场冲突在加沙造成65 000多人死亡,其中包括20 000多名儿童。 The conflict, sparked by Hamas’s October 2023 attack that killed 1,200 Israelis and took 250 hostages, has led to over 65,000 deaths in Gaza, including more than 20,000 children, according to health officials. 以色列总理内塔尼亚胡认为联合国的调查结果毫无根据。 Israel’s Prime Minister Netanyahu dismissed the UN findings as baseless.
