That the Parliament notes with deep regret the reported death of the respected journalist, Shireen Abu Akleh, after being shot in the head while reporting; understands that Ms Abu Akleh was a Palestinian-American journalist who worked for 25 years as a reporter for Al Jazeera, and was a household name across the Middle East for her many years reporting from the Israeli-occupied Palestinian territories; believes that an independent inquiry into her death must be carried out in light of conflicting accounts of the circumstances of her death; understands that the UN Special Rapporteur on the situation of human rights in the Palestinian Territory occupied since 1967, Francesca Albanese, said in an interview that her death constitutes a "serious violation of international humanitarian law and is potentially a war crime under the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court", and expresses its sympathy to Ms Abu Akleh’s family and all who knew her.
