Francesca Albanese, the UN Special Rapporteur on human rights in the occupied Palestinian territories, said that the bombs used in the attacks on the Gaza Strip were equivalent in power to six nuclear bombs. She made these remarks in an interview with Al Jazeera on the third anniversary of the start of the Gaza war.
Albanizi described the situation in Gaza as very catastrophic and said that the residents of this besieged region are facing a gradual death.
These statements were published in an Al Jazeera report on October 9, 2026; this comparison refers to the explosive power of the combined bombs and does not imply the use of nuclear weapons in Gaza.
