UN Report Accuses Israel of Genocide in Gaza, Citing Deliberate Attacks on Children

A United Nations commission of inquiry has accused Israel of committing genocide in Gaza through the deliberate targeting of children. The three-member expert panel released its findings in a new report, which Israel immediately rejected as a "libellous sham." The commission’s allegations mark a significant escalation in international criticism of Israel’s military actions in the region. The report has not yet been published in full, but the panel’s statement focuses on attacks that it says are aimed at the civilian population, particularly minors. Israel has consistently denied such claims, calling the investigation biased and politically motivated.
