UN Special Rapporteur on the occupied territories, Francesca Albanese, warned on Monday that Israel's clearance of rubble in Gaza could destroy evidence of war crimes. Albanese stated that states and companies involved in removing the rubble “could incur international criminal responsibility” for destroying evidence of crimes committed during the conflict. The International Court of Justice had previously ordered Israel in 2024 to take effective measures to prevent the destruction of evidence related to allegations under the Genocide Convention.
