Israel's genocide in Gaza continues as Palestinians face 'slow death', Amnesty International says
Israel's genocide in Gaza continues as Palestinians face 'slow death', Amnesty International says
Israel is still waging a genocide against Palestinians in Gaza despite the fact that a ceasefire in the enclave is entering its second month and all living Israeli captives have been released, Amnesty International has said.
“The ceasefire risks creating a dangerous illusion that life in Gaza is returning to normal,” Agnes Callamard, secretary general of Amnesty International, said in a statement on Thursday.
"While Israeli authorities and forces have reduced the scale of their attacks and allowed limited amounts of humanitarian aid into Gaza, the world must not be fooled. Israel’s genocide is not over,” she added.
Amnesty International in December 2024 deemed Israel’s war on Gaza a genocide. That judgment was reaffirmed by the United Nations’ top investigative body on Palestine and Israel in September when it ruled that Israel is guilty of the crime of genocide in the strip. That view has been shared by dozens of world leaders, historians, human rights experts, and genocide scholars.
