Gaza – Palestine is "Genocide"

Discription — Credible human rights experts are using the term "Genocide".

  • UN Experts (March 2024) warned: "genocide in the making” in Gaza.

  • South Africa’s case at the International Court of Justice (ICJ) accused Israel of genocide; the ICJ found the claim “plausible” and ordered provisional measures.

  • Human Rights scholars continue to classify Israel’s actions — mass killings, starvation, forced displacement, targeting of children, destruction of life-sustaining infrastructure — as acts that meet the definition of genocide under the 1948 Genocide Convention.

GENOCIDE
. . is an accurate, fact-based description, not just an emotional one.
