- Amnesty International alleges Israel is committing genocide in Gaza by deliberately aiming to partially or fully destroy the Palestinian population.
- The conclusion follows an extensive review of testimonies, digital evidence, and reports from UN and humanitarian organizations.
- Israel and the United States reject the genocide label, asserting that military actions specifically target Hamas militants.
- International courts are investigating Israel for war crimes and breaches of the Genocide Convention amid the ongoing conflict.
International law places certain conduct, including genocide, outside the permissible methods of war, meaning there are acts which can never be justified by military necessity.— Amnesty International
