Nearly two years after the Israel War began following the Hamas attack on 7 October which killed over 1,000 Israeli’s and Israel, in response, has killed some 65,000 Palestinians, seriously wounded over 160,000, bombed the enclave into total ruins and keeps starving Palestinians to death, the International Association of Genocide Scholars (IAGS) passed a resolution on a week ago Sunday that Israel has committed genocide in Gaza.
Bezalel Smotrich, the Israeli finance minister, called on the IDF to either kill or starve out the remaining Palestinians still in Gaza City after a clash with the country’s military chief who warned that it could take some time to move the civilian population from the shelled-out city.
There is no truth allowed to detail the brutality of Israeli Genocide. The Israeli government military carried out deadly strikes on the Nasser Hospital in Gaza’s Khan Yunis that killed at least 20—including five journalists and medical staffers attempting to save casualties in the first strike.
Israel killed at least 62,744 Palestinians since the start of the genocide, and more than 158,259 have been wounded.
The Integrated Food Security Phase Classification (IPC), which is a panel that provides information about hunger to the UN and other international bodies, reported last week that Gaza City and the surrounding areas were in the throes of famine, caused directly by Israel’s humanitarian blockade, the destruction of hospitals, and the forced displacement of the population.
An Israeli database managed by the country’s Military Intelligence Directorate indicates that at least 83 percent of the Palestinians killed in Gaza in the nearly two-year-long genocide have been civilians, according to a joint report by +972 Magazine, Local Call, and The Guardian.
A group of over 80 Orthodox rabbis signed a petition last week demanding that Israel address the worsening conditions inside Gaza, which they identified as “one of the most severe” crises in recent history.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s extremist coalition rejected a partial ceasefire deal with Hamas that would return some of the 50 or so remaining Israeli hostages in Gaza in exchange for a temporary truce.
The IDF on Sunday carried out a bombing campaign across Sanaa, Yemen’s capital, just days after the Houthis took credit for a missile launch against Israel, prompting the group to vow continued attacks on Israel as long as it carries out its genocide campaign in Gaza.
Four employees from Boston Consulting Group (BCG) left a team in the early stages of designing a new procedure to rush humanitarian aid into Gaza without the assistance of the UN, raising new scrutiny for the company that has already found itself in a PR headache.
