    I really appreciate the work that AP news does. Good communication and reliable reporting.

    I wish, in my heart of hearts, they would link the primary sources when they are online and publicly available. As far as I can tell, UN documentation on these abuses are mostly covered here: https://docs.un.org/en/A/HRC/59/26 (And committee page more broadly is here: https://www.ohchr.org/en/hr-bodies/hrc/co-israel/index , I think Israel is responding to their more recent report, or something near it.)

    (I’m not terribly well informed, do let me know of better sources.)
