Human Rights Watch Report Finds Hamas Committed War Crimes on October 7

ai generated text

Human Rights Watch has released a report concluding that Hamas intentionally targeted civilians, committing war crimes such as torture, use of human shields, and premeditated murder. The organization accuses Hamas and other Palestinian militant groups of hundreds of crimes against humanity, including sexual violence, kidnappings, and the killing of civilians.

    Hamas
    1. We reject the lies and blatant bias towards the occupation [Israel] and the lack of professionalism and credibility in the Human Rights Watch report. We demand its withdrawal and an apology.
  2. Human Rights Watch
    1. Human Rights Watch has found that the Palestinian armed groups involved in the assault on October 7 committed a widespread attack directed against a civilian population, according to the definition required for crimes against humanity.
    2. The Palestinian armed groups in Gaza should immediately and unconditionally release civilians held hostage.
    3. The armed groups committed numerous violations of the laws of war that amount to war crimes.
    4. Across many attack sites, [Palestinian] fighters fired directly at civilians, often at close range, as they tried to flee, and at people who happened to be driving vehicles in the area.
    5. They took hundreds hostage for transfer to Gaza or summarily killed them.
    6. Palestinian fighters repeatedly attacked civilians and summarily executed individuals in their custody. The killings of civilians appear planned because of the many similarities in how killings took place across the attack sites.
