Italy evacuate 19 children to Gaza amid accusations of complicity in genocide

Italy evacuated 19 sick children to Italy on Wednesday night, the Ministry of Defence Guido Crosetto announced on Thursday. The children were admitted to 15 different Italian hospitals.

Italy has been criticised for being complicit in Israel's genocide through providing arms to Israel and allowing Israel to use its airspace. An advocacy group called Jurists and Lawyers for Palestine filed a complaint at the International Criminal Court against Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni, Defense Minister Guido Crosetto, and Foreign Minister Antonio Tajani last month.

The complaint alleges that Italy has become complicit in the alleged genocide and war crimes against Palestinians in Gaza by supplying weapons to the Israeli government.
