Tehran demands UN probe into Israeli use of mercenaries inside of Iran
"...Iran has formally urged the United Nations to launch an immediate and comprehensive investigation into the Israeli occupation’s use of mercenaries in its ongoing acts of aggression against Iran, according to a report by IRNA.
Tehran submits evidence of foreign-backed assassinations on Iranian soil
In a letter submitted to the UN Working Group on the Use of Mercenaries, the Iranian mission in Geneva presented documents and evidence detailing the role of foreign mercenary networks in orchestrated attacks targeting Iran’s territory and personnel.
The letter outlines how foreign-backed operatives, linked to various governments, have been involved in systematic assassinations of Iranian scientists and senior military officials, as well as coordinated bombings and armed drone attacks deep within Iranian territory.
IRNA stated that the material submitted points to a coordinated campaign involving mercenaries, with the aim of destabilizing Iran through acts of cross-border aggression that violate international law.
During "Israel's" war on Iran, Iranian intelligence arrested 700 individuals accused of working with the Mossad..."

US [government] sanctions UN expert Francesca Albanese over Israel criticism
"...The UN rapporteur appears to dismiss the Trump administration's economic penalties, calling them 'mafia-style intimidation techniques':
The administration of United States President Donald Trump has imposed sanctions on United Nations expert Francesca Albanese over her documentation of Israel’s abuses against Palestinians during its war on Gaza.
US Secretary of State Marco Rubio announced the penalties on Wednesday, accusing Albanese of waging a "campaign of political and economic warfare against the United States and Israel".
Albanese, who serves as UN special rapporteur on the occupied Palestinian territory, has been a leading global voice in calling for action to end Israel’s human rights violations.
Israel and its supporters have been rebuking Albanese and calling for her to be removed from her UN position for years.
When reached by Al Jazeera, Albanese appeared to dismiss the US’s sanctions, saying she is focused on continuing her work.
"No comment on mafia style intimidation techniques", the UN expert wrote in a text message. "Busy reminding member states of their obligations to stop and punish genocide. And those who profit from it".
Earlier on Wednesday, she called out European governments for allowing Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu - who is wanted by the International Criminal Court (ICC) for war crime charges in Gaza - to use their airspace while travelling.
"Italian, French and Greek citizens deserve to know that every political action violating the [international] legal order, weakens and endangers all of them. And all of us", Albanese wrote in a social media post..."

Re: Palestinians & Friends Attack Israeli Occupiers
The main reason the US government may have sanctioned Albanese could have been because of this report:
From economy of occupation to economy of genocide
https://ohchr.org/en/documents/country- ... rapporteur
There is a similarity with her being sanctioned like what happened with Rod Blagojevich.
The full report is 39 pages long. The following snippet of text is from the report:
From economy of occupation to economy of genocide
"...38. IBM has operated in Israel since 1972, training military and intelligence personnel - especially from Unit 8200 - for the technology sector and start-up scene. Since 2019, IBM Israel has operated and upgraded the central database of the Population and Immigration Authority, enabling collection, storage and governmental use of biometric data on Palestinians, and supporting the discriminatory permit regime of Israel.
Before IBM, Hewlett Packard Enterprises (HPE) maintained the database and its Israeli subsidiary is still providing servers. Hewlett Packard (HP) has long enabled the apartheid systems of Israel, supplying technology to the Coordination of Government Activities in the Territories (COGAT), the prison service and police. Since the 2015 split of the company into Hewlett Packard Enterprises and HP Inc., opaque business structures have obscured the roles of their seven remaining Israeli subsidiaries.
39. Microsoft has been active in Israel since 1991, developing its largest centre outside the United States. Its technologies are embedded in the prison service, police, universities and schools - including in colonies. Microsoft has been integrating its systems and civilian tech across the Israeli military since 2003, while acquiring Israeli cybersecurity and surveillance start-ups..."

Google leader Brin slams 'antisemitic' UN after controversial Gaza report
"...Google co-founder Sergey Brin blasted the United Nations as "transparently antisemitic" on Saturday in an internal forum for employees,
The Washington Post reported Tuesday.
Brin was responding to a report by an independent U.N. expert published in June which accused Google and its parent company Alphabet of profiting from "Israel's economy of illegal occupation, apartheid and now genocide" against Palestinians in Gaza.
The Google leader condemned the report in an internal forum where staff members were discussing it, according to the Washington Post.
"With all due respect, throwing around the term genocide in relation to Gaza is deeply offensive to many Jewish people who have suffered actual genocides", he wrote. "I would also be careful citing transparently antisemitic organizations like the U.N. in relation to these issues"..."

Re: Palestinians & Friends Attack Israeli Occupiers
US sanctions on Albanese shamefully undermine justice: Amnesty
"...The report was compiled by Francesca Albanese, who serves as the UN Special Rapporteur on human rights in the Palestinian territories under occupation, drawing upon more than 200 submissions provided by governments, human rights groups, universities, and private sector entities to support her conclusions.
Released on July 7, the document calls on corporations to immediately terminate all business operations with "Israel" while demanding that corporate leaders face legal consequences for their purported breaches of international legal standards.
The report identifies major arms producers, including Lockheed Martin and Leonardo, as suppliers of weapons allegedly deployed in Gaza, while naming corporations like Caterpillar and Hyundai for providing heavy equipment said to facilitate property destruction across Palestinian territories.
Tech giants such as Alphabet, Amazon, Microsoft, and IBM, which are characterized as playing key roles in maintaining what the document describes as "Israel's surveillance infrastructure and the continuing devastation in Gaza"..."
