GENEVA: The UN High Commissioner for Human Rights on Friday urged all parties to place human rights at the center of efforts to rebuild Gaza and establish a lasting peace, emphasizing that the ongoing ceasefire should serve as a foundation for sustainable security and stability. Volker Turk said that while there was widespread relief at signs of an end to the war and humanitarian suffering, significant work remained to ensure lasting peace, justice and accountability for serious violations of human rights and international humanitarian law over the past two years.
