A resolution requesting information on Israel's human rights practices pursuant to section 502B(c) of the Foreign Assistance Act of 1961.

This Senate resolution formally requests that the Secretary of State provide a detailed statement to the Senate Committee on Foreign Relations and the House Committee on Foreign Affairs. This statement, due within 30 days of the resolution's adoption, is mandated under section 502B(c) of the Foreign Assistance Act of 1961 and must address Israel's human rights practices, particularly concerning its military operations in Lebanon since February 28, 2026. The resolution highlights concerns about extensive destruction of civilian homes, infrastructure, and the displacement of over one million people during these operations. The requested statement must include all credible information regarding alleged violations of internationally recognized human rights, such as the scale of destruction of civilian and religious sites, and an assessment of civilian casualties in unilaterally imposed "evacuation zones." It also requires an evaluation of whether U.S.-provided bulldozers, munitions, and defense articles have been used in mass destruction or civilian harm incidents. Furthermore, the Secretary of State must describe any actions taken to determine if Israel's actions violate international humanitarian law or its assurances to the U.S. government regarding the use of defense articles.
