SRES 797 United States Senate · 119th Congress

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 asks the Secretary of State to provide a detailed report on Israel's human rights practices in Lebanon since February 2026. The request specifically targets the destruction of civilian homes, religious sites, and infrastructure, as well as the displacement of over one million people due to evacuation orders. The bill requires the report to assess whether U.S.-provided military equipment was used in these operations and to evaluate if Israeli actions violate international humanitarian law or constitute war crimes. Ultimately, the legislation aims to gather factual information from government officials to inform the Senate about the scope of alleged violations during the conflict.
