Israel has committed genocide in Gaza, UN commission of inquiry says

According to a UN commission of inquiry, Israel has committed acts of genocide against Palestinians in the Gaza Strip. The panel concluded that four of the five acts defined as genocide under international law have been carried out, including the deliberate infliction of conditions of life calculated to bring about the physical destruction of the Palestinian population. The report states that the level of civilian casualties and the destruction of homes, schools, and hospitals during military operations in Gaza indicate that Israel's actions may amount to war crimes and crimes against humanity. The commission calls for the situation in the Occupied Palestinian Territory to be referred to the International Criminal Court for investigation and prosecution. The findings highlight the ongoing human rights abuses and the need for accountability in the region.
