UN Commission Accuses Israel of Genocide in Gaza
The United Nations Commission of Inquiry stated that Israel has committed genocide in Gaza. It emphasized killings, aid blockages, forced displacements, clinic destruction, and incitement by Israeli officials. The commission's report marks the strongest UN finding but is independent. Israel defends its actions as self-defense.
A recent report from the United Nations Commission of Inquiry has accused Israel of committing acts of genocide in Gaza. The commission, chaired by Navi Pillay, detailed examples including killings, aid blockages, and forced displacement as evidence for their conclusion.
According to the commission, top Israeli officials, including Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, have incited violence and orchestrated a campaign to destroy the Palestinian group in Gaza. This independent UN report aligns with findings from other rights organizations.
Israel has rejected these accusations, citing self-defense following recent attacks. Despite this, the commission's findings apply significant pressure on the UN to officially label the situation as genocide.
