International Community's Failure to Address Human Rights Abuses in Gaza and Syria

Published on 4.15.25

  The international community has been criticized for its response to human rights abuses and conflicts in various regions. The recent UN resolution calling for an investigation into human rights violations in Syria is a step towards accountability, but it has been met with skepticism given the lack of action from other countries. In Gaza, the situation has deteriorated significantly since Israel resumed its offensive on March 18, resulting in over 62,000 Palestinian deaths, including 18,000 children. The international community is criticized for its lack of action, despite UNESCO's "safe schools" and UNICEF's promise of childhood remaining unfulfilled. The International Criminal Court has issued arrest warrants for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and former Defense Minister Yoav Gallant in November for war crimes and crimes against humanity committed in Gaza. The world is still urged to take action, including halting weapons shipments and sanctioning those responsible. In Syria, the UN resolution highlights the ongoing human rights abuses, which have been exacerbated by the lack of international action.
