💨 Abstract

Two prominent Israeli rights groups, B’Tselem and Physicians for Human Rights-Israel (PHRI), have accused the Israeli government of committing genocide in Gaza. This marks a significant shift, as local Jewish-led groups have previously avoided such accusations. The groups claim that Israel's military offensive, which followed a deadly attack by Hamas, includes policies and statements indicating an intention to destroy Palestinian society. Both groups cite the deliberate dismantling of Gaza's health and life-sustaining systems.
