Human Rights Watch states that Israel is committing crimes against humanity

The Human Rights Watch report provides compelling evidence of forced displacement of Palestinians in Gaza by Israel authorities, which it describes as amounting to war crimes and crimes against humanity. The systematic destruction of civilian infrastructure, agricultural lands, and educational institutions portrays a disturbing picture of a population being deliberately uprooted and deprived of basic rights and necessities. Given the gravity of these findings from a respected human rights organization, urgent action is needed to address and halt these egregious violations of international law. Israel's claims of lawful evacuation for security reasons are undermined by the report's documentation of failures to protect civilians during displacement and in designated safe zones. This systematic oppression and forced displacement of an entire population cannot be allowed to continue with impunity. I urge you to take immediate steps to ensure accountability and justice for the Palestinian people suffering under Israel's genocide in Gaza. Upholding human rights and international law must be a paramount priority. www.hrw.org/report/2024/11/14/hopeless-starving-and-besieged/israels-forced-displacement-palestinians-gaza
