HRW accuses Israel of war crime of forced displacement in Gaza
ai generated text
A report by Human Rights Watch accuses Israel of committing war crimes and crimes against humanity in Gaza, citing the forced displacement of over 1.9 million Palestinians from their homes.
Forced displacement has been widespread, and the evidence shows it has been systematic and part of a state policy. Such acts also constitute crimes against humanity.
Human Rights Watch found that forced displacement has been widespread, and the evidence shows it has been systematic and part of a state policy. Such acts also constitute crimes against humanity.
Israel has blatantly violated its obligation to ensure Palestinians can return home, razing virtually everything in large areas.
It's just very clear in those areas that people have been forced out, they won't be allowed to return. That also meets another definition which is used in international law, even if it doesn't have an international legal definition, and it's known as ethnic cleansing.
The Israeli government cannot claim to be keeping Palestinians safe when it kills them along escape routes, bombs so-called safe zones, and cuts off food, water, and sanitation.
Most of Gaza's population are originally refugees from what has been Israel since 1948 – the overwhelming majority.
