RootsTwo major Israeli rights organizations have said that Israel’s conduct in the war in Gaza forms a massacre against the Palestinian population.
B’Tselem and physicians for Human Rights-Israel released separate reports on Monday based on the study of the struggle of the last 21 months.
The organization, which has been active in Israel for decades, said in a joint statement that “calling things in these dark times is especially important”, while “call to stop this crime immediately”.
A spokesman for an Israeli government said that he strongly dismissed the allegations of the massacre, which was created by human rights groups in Israel.
David Mensor said, “Our defense forces targeted terrorists and ever citizens. Hamas is responsible for suffering in Gaza.”
At a news conference in Jerusalem on Monday, B’Tselem’s Executive Director Euli Novak said that his organization’s report is “one that we had never imagined that we have to write”.
88-Page’s document states: “With statements by senior Israeli politicians and military commanders about an examination of Israeli’s policy and its frightening outcomes in Gaza Strip, with statements, leads us to uneven conclusions that the Israeli Gaz strip is taking coordinated action to deliberately destroy the Palestine society in the Gaj Strip.”
In its 65-foot reportPhysician for Human Rights Israel (PHRI) stated that his health-centered legal analysis found that Israel had “targeted Gaza’s healthcare infrastructure” in this way both calculated and systematically “.
The report stated, “The evidence reflects a deliberate and systematic disintegration of Gaza’s health and life -truth systems – through targeted attacks, medical aid and withdrawal hurdles and withdrawal of withdrawal on hospitals and killing and detention of healthcare personnel,” the report said.
PHRI Executive Director Dr. Gai Shalev said: “Silence is not an option in front of the massacre. We want to stress: It is not only the responsibility of legal and political institutions facing the massacre. Facing it demands immediate action from the global health community.”
On 7 October 2023, “Horrific and Criminal Hamas attack” on Israel “was a triggering incident, which led to fear and collective trauma among the Israelis.
However, in response to the attack, he alleged, the Israeli government chased a campaign based on “promoting extremist ideologies and inhumanization of Palestinians in Gaza”.
He said that it was a reference to the language used from political and military leaders to the soldiers who fought on the ground, which held all the Palestinians responsible in Gaza.
The PHRI concluded that its identified acts were “not accidental for war, but a intentional part of a intentional policy targeting Palestinians as a group was part of the policy”, and in such a way that the 1948 conference was fulfilled at least three acts defined in Article II, which was on the prevention and punishment of the crime of the massacre, which is a signator who is a signature.
RootsMany international rights organizations, United Nations Human Rights experts and scholars have accused Israel of a massacre in Gaza.
The International Court of Justice (ICJ) is also investigating a case brought by South Africa, alleging that Israeli Bal is massacre against Palestinians in Gaza.
Israel has denied the allegation and called the case based on “completely baseless” and “biased and false claims”.
Dr. Shalev told the BBC that PHRI and B’TSelem were worried that organizations and their employees could be subjected to oral or physical violence in Israel in response to their reports.
“But we are hoping that people will hear what we are saying,” he said.
B’Tselem’s Euli Novak said that the process of concluding the conclusion that Israel was conducting a massacre was frightening.
“Really to understand that your country, your collective, is actually massacre, this is a very difficult mental and personal process,” he said.
“It is very basic in your understanding who we are.”
Israel launched its war in Gaza in vengeance for Hamas’s 7 October 2023 attack, killing around 1,200 people and 251 others hostage.
According to Hamas’s Health Ministry, more than 59,900 people have been killed in Gaza. Ministry figures are quoted as the most reliable source of data available on casualties by the United Nations and others.
