Palestinians walk through the destruction left by the Israeli air and ground offensive on the Gaza Strip near Shifa Hospital in Gaza City, April 1, 2024
ISRAEL is guilty of the crime of “extermination” in Gaza, a United Nations inquiry has found, saying that the country’s military has intentionally targeted health facilities and medical personnel.
In advance of the publication of the inquiry’s full report, which will be presented to the world body’s general assembly on October 30, former UN high commissioner for human rights Navi Pillay accused Israel of “committing war crimes and the crime against humanity of extermination with relentless and deliberate attacks on medical personnel and facilities” in Gaza.
“Children in particular have borne the brunt of these attacks, suffering both directly and indirectly from the collapse of the health system,” she said.
