Israel's Targeting of Gaza's Children Proves Genocidal Intent, UN Inquiry Finds
The 100-page report says at least 20,179 Palestinian children were killed and more than 44,000 injured since October 2023.
- The Independent International Commission of Inquiry on the Occupied Palestinian Territory released a 100-page report this week documenting violations against Palestinian children in Gaza since October 7, 2023.
- Citing evidence that forces used drones and sniper rifles "to inflict maximum damage," the Commission found "reasonable grounds" to conclude Israel is committing genocide.
- At least 20,179 Palestinian children were killed and more than 44,000 injured, while 97 percent of schools were destroyed, dismantling systems children need to survive.
- While Israel dismissed the findings as "defamatory," Commission chairman Srinivasan Muralidhar stated "Israel is attacking the very ability of the Palestinian people to exist."
- Unicef spokesman James Elder emphasized children "were not killed in a war zone" but in homes, warning that trauma will affect them throughout their lives in Gaza.
