Report on warning from US State Department’s Democracy, Labor and Human Rights bureau
[edit]Several elements of this report should be included as relevant:
"Lewis asked the bureau to expedite its review and “urgently” explain any opposition to specific arms packages for Israel, according to the emails. Lewis resigned in July.
Christopher Le Mon, deputy assistant secretary at DRL, recommended denying more than a dozen arms packages, including grenade launchers, gun parts, rifles and spare rifle parts. In a reply to Lewis, he cited concerns about the “conduct” of specific Israeli National Police units, including the elite Yamam border patrol unit.
Le Mon wrote that there were “numerous reports” of Yamam’s involvement in “gross violations of human rights.” DRL raised objections against 16 separate arms packages for Israel, according to the email and a source familiar with the matter. Nearly all the shipments went ahead despite the bureau’s objections, the source said. Yamam’s missions eventually included a June 8 rescue of four Israeli hostages that Gaza health officials say killed more than 200 Palestinians."
The Reuters source can probably also replace the existing Times of Israel source regarding deaths on June 8th since: it's arguably a more neutral source, a bit more removed from the conflict than the TOI; offers context for why the mission and that casualty figure might be important and relevant; and also does not make dismissive or inflammatory reference to Hamas in citing the high casualty figure, instead plainly mentioning the Gazan Health Ministry instead.
