VisitAmnesty Accuses Israel of Genocide in Gaza; Israel Denies Allegations
Dec 5, 2024, 09:15 AM
Amnesty International has released a new report in The Hague accusing Israel of committing genocide against Palestinians in the Gaza Strip since the start of the war last year. The organization alleges that Israeli authorities have carried out acts prohibited by the Genocide Convention with the specific intent to destroy Palestinians in Gaza. The report, which serves as a 'wake-up call' to the international community, is based on analyses of statements by Israeli officials, satellite imagery, and ground reports from Gaza. Amnesty International cites the indiscriminate killing of civilians, denial of aid, and destruction of vital infrastructure, resulting in tens of thousands of deaths and leaving Gaza in ruins. The group calls on Israel's allies to halt arms shipments, warning that they could be complicit in genocide. Israel has rejected the allegations, calling them false and denying any intent to commit genocide.
