巴勒斯坦团结网络Aotearoa敦促新西兰谴责以色列摧毁位于加沙的新西兰战争墓地,包括英联邦战争墓地,其中埋有23名第一次世界大战士兵和两名库克群岛军人。 The Palestine Solidarity Network Aotearoa is urging New Zealand to condemn Israel’s destruction of New Zealand war graves in Gaza, including the Commonwealth War Cemetery where 23 World War I soldiers and two Cook Islands servicemen are buried. 巴勒斯坦看守人Essam Jaradah证实,这些坟墓被亵渎,这是以色列破坏或摧毁加沙至少16个其他墓地和安置一名加拿大士兵的更广泛行动的一部分。 Palestinian caretaker Essam Jaradah confirmed the graves were desecrated, part of a broader pattern of Israeli actions that have damaged or destroyed at least 16 other cemeteries in Gaza and one housing Canadian soldiers. PSNA共同主席John Minto批评新西兰缺乏官方回应, 指出尽管网站具有历史意义且受国际法保护, PSNA co-chair John Minto criticized New Zealand’s lack of official response, noting no government visit or public condemnation despite the site’s historical significance and protection under international law. 该团体认为,破坏反映了以色列在被占领土上的持续侵犯行为,并呼吁追究责任。 The group argues the destruction reflects Israel’s ongoing violations in occupied territories and calls for accountability. 与此同时,以色列声称,它摧毁了澳大利亚在巴勒斯坦的战争墓地,因为被埋葬的士兵据称与哈马斯有关联,澳大利亚和国际观察员对此提出异议,因为哈马斯是在士兵死亡几十年后成立的。 Meanwhile, Israel claims it destroyed Australian war graves in Palestine because the buried soldiers were allegedly affiliated with Hamas, a claim disputed by Australia and international observers, given Hamas was founded decades after the soldiers died.
