Gaza genocide

October 7, 2023

Israel's military campaign in Gaza after the Hamas-led attack of 7 October 2023 has killed tens of thousands of Palestinians and destroyed much of the territory. Many UN experts, scholars and rights groups call it genocide, and South Africa brought a case at the International Court of Justice; Israel rejects the charge.
