UN-Commissioned Experts Say Gaza Ceasefire Has Not Stopped Israel From Committing Genocide
The commission said Israeli forces killed at least 196 Palestinians in Gaza after the ceasefire and expanded control to 60% of the territory.
- On Monday, a UN commission report alleged Israel is "continuing to commit genocidal acts" with intent to destroy Palestinians in Gaza. Since the October 2025 ceasefire, Israeli forces expanded territorial control from 53% to at least 60%.
- Israeli fire across the advancing front has killed at least 196 Palestinians, including 18 women, 32 boys, and 11 girls, since the ceasefire began. This expansion deeper into Gaza drove much of the documented harm.
- The commission also accused Israeli security forces of war crimes, including torture and rape, in Gaza and the West Bank. Investigators documented six cases of sexual violence at the Sde Teiman military prison, alleging guards used sticks and forced urination.
- These detailed findings aim to support accountability for perpetrators, potentially aiding prosecutors at the International Criminal Court. Israel denies both the genocide and sexual assault allegations, and did not immediately respond to the report's publication.
- The ceasefire scaled down a war initiated by Hamas-led attacks on Israel on October 7, 2023, which killed 1,200 people. According to Gaza's Health Ministry, Israel's subsequent military campaign has killed over 74,000 Palestinians throughout the conflict.

The report of the Commission of Inquiry is “yet another manifestation of its misinformation campaign to demonize the state of Israel and portray its very existence as criminal,” the Israeli mission to the United Nations in Geneva stated.
The United Nations International Independent Investigation Commission said today: Israel is committing crimes against humanity against Palestinians in the occupied West Bank, including the crime of "extermination," and continues to carry out genocide in the Gaza Strip.
An Israeli large-scale offensive is currently underway in the occupied West Bank. However, Palestinians have been suffering from violence and displacement there for a long time. Investigators on behalf of the United Nations report on extreme proportions.
