The committee's investigation lasted two years, and the research focused on events that took place from October 7, 2023, when Hamas attacked Israel, to this day.
The report shows that, according to the committee, the authorities and the security of Israel's security have committed four out of five acts of genocide, which are defined in the convention of preventing and punishing the crime of genocide. These acts are: murder, causing serious physical or mental injuries, intentional creation of living conditions aimed at destroying a group of people in whole or in part, as well as introducing measures aimed at preventing births.
The report published on Tuesday is the first document of this kind in which the UN (HRC) committee appointed by the Human Rights Council (HRC) directly accuses Israel of the crime of genocide.
The UN accuses Israel of genocide. Three politicians were indicated
The chairwoman of the Navi Pillay committee emphasized in the report that “responsibility for cruel crimes in the Gaza Strip rests with the highest Israeli authorities, which have been organizing a genocidal campaign for almost two years with a specific intention to destroy the Palestinian group in the Gaza Strip.” She added that Israel did not try to prevent genocide and did not strive to punish the perpetrators.

According to the commission, “Israeli authorities did not intend to change their behavior”, on the contrary, they sought to continue their “genocidal campaign in the Gaza Strip for almost two years.” “Israel must immediately end the genocide in the Gaza Strip and fully follow the orders of taking temporary funds spent by the International Court of Justice,” Pillay appeals.
The report also directly indicated politicians who incited genocide. They are the prime minister of Israel Binjamin Netanyahu, the president of Israel Isaac Herzog and former defense minister of this country Yoav Gallant.
Israel's answer is
Israeli authorities have already responded to the report. The government of this country maintains that it continues the war in the Gaza Strip within “self -bodily” and “in accordance with international law”. He also strongly denies that the genocide occurs.
The Israeli Ministry of Foreign Affairs announced on Tuesday that “Israel categorically rejects a distorted and false report and calls for immediate abolition of the investigation commission.” However, the whole investigation called “a report based only on the lies of Hamas”, which was made by the proxies of this group, whose “terrifying statements about Jews met with condemnation around the world.”
The matter is dealt with by the International Court of Justice
Other international organizations had already indicated that Israel was committed in the Gaza Gaza Gaza Zone.
The International Court of Justice (ICJ) is also dealing with the matter. The proceedings were initiated after the accusations were made that Israel could commit genocide. However, no sentence in this case was passed. The International Criminal Tribunal has issued an arrest of the aforementioned Netanyahu and Gallant. They are accused of war crimes and a crime against humanity.
