Dec 5, 2024, 07:48 AM

Amnesty International has released a 300-page report accusing Israel of committing genocide against Palestinians in the Gaza Strip. Presented in The Hague, the report concludes that Israel's military actions meet the legal definition of genocide under international law, citing 'dehumanizing and genocidal' statements by Israeli officials. Amnesty International is calling for governments to impose an arms embargo on Israel. Israel has strongly rejected the allegations, labeling the report as baseless, fabricated, and a 'blood libel.' Amnesty Israel has also rejected the parent organization's report, stating that it was a 'predetermined conclusion' based on biased analysis.
