Gaza – Disability Rights Defender in Gaza Addresses UN (Abier Almasri, HRW)

Abeer al-Harakli, a 28-year-old disability rights defender from Gaza, addressed the United Nations earlier this month at the 14th session of the Conference of States Parties to the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities. She described in detail the difficulties and fear that people with disabilities in Gaza face when attempting to flee hostilities. Fleeing an attack, she said, “is the most difficult thing for us, people with disabilities.”
