Among other things, Switzerland should summon the Israeli ambassador and publicly demand an end to the violence.

There is“sufficient evidence” that Israel is committing“genocide” against the Palestinian population in the Gaza Strip, Amnesty International announced on Thursday.

The organisation referred to a report it had written itself and called on Switzerland to lobby the United Nations Security Council for an arms embargo against Israel, Hamas and other Palestinian groups and for sanctions against those responsible for atrocities by the end of the year.
