Amnesty International says there is ‘sufficient evidence’ that Israel commits genocide in Gaza

05-12-2024 11:23 AM


Ammon News - Amnesty International said that Israel has committed and continues to commit genocide against Palestinians in the Gaza Strip.

The organization added in a report that its research has found sufficient evidence proving that Israel has committed and continues to commit genocide against Palestinians in the occupied Gaza Strip.

The organization documented in its report entitled, "You Feel Like You're Not Human": On the genocide committed by Israel against Palestinians in the Gaza Strip, Israel has opened the gates of hell and destruction on Palestinians in the Gaza Strip, in a blatant and continuous manner, with complete impunity, during its military attack on the Strip.

“The report clearly establishes that Israel committed acts prohibited by the Genocide Convention with the specific intent to destroy Palestinians in the Gaza Strip. These acts included killing Palestinians in Gaza, causing them serious bodily or psychological harm, and deliberately inflicting on them conditions of life calculated to bring about their physical destruction.

For months, Israel has treated Palestinians as subhuman, undeserving of human rights and dignity, and has demonstrated that its intent was to destroy them physically,” said Amnesty International’s Secretary General, Agnès Callamard.

“Our damning findings should serve as a wake-up call to the international community: this is genocide, and it must stop now,” Callamard added.

“States that continue to supply arms to Israel at this time must realize that they are failing in their obligation to prevent genocide and risk becoming complicit in genocide,” she continued. “All states with influence over Israel, especially key arms suppliers such as the United States, Germany, and other EU member states, must act immediately to end Israel’s atrocities against the Palestinians.”

Over the past two months, the crisis has been particularly acute in the northern Gaza Strip, where the besieged population is suffering starvation, forced displacement, and genocide amid relentless bombardment and stifling restrictions on life-saving humanitarian aid.

“Our research has shown that for months, Israel has been committing acts of genocide, fully aware of the irreparable harm it is causing to Palestinians in Gaza, and has gone so far as to disregard countless warnings about the catastrophic humanitarian situation and legally binding decisions of the International Court of Justice ordering Israel to take immediate measures to enable humanitarian aid to reach civilians in Gaza,” Callamard said.
