The statement said: "Destruction operations carried out for the purpose of overall security and the establishment of a buffer zone do not fall within the narrow exception of "military operations" under international humanitarian law. In addition, military necessity cannot be self-evident, is illegal and is carried out without justification. Large-scale destruction of property amounts to a serious violation of the Fourth Geneva Convention and amounts to the commission of a war crime."
