Almost 300 reported murdered in Gaza in 3 days since global experts accused Israel of Genocide

The expanding military offensive of Israel has killed at least 287 people in Gaza in the three days since a group of world leading genocide academics declared that Israel is committing genocide in the roasted Palestinian enclave, according to health officials in the territory of Hamas.

The International Scholars Association of Genocide, which includes experts in the Holocaust, declared in a resolution of August 31 that Israel’s actions in Gaza from the 22 month war It began to constitute genocide, war crimes and crimes against humanity.

As evidence, the group pointed out the murder or mutilation of 50,000 children; Israeli leaders who characterize the Palestinians in Gaza as “human animals” and threaten to “flatten” the territory and turn it into hell; and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu that supports President Trump’s plan for the United States “Get the control” of the strip and have all its inhabitants “reappeared” elsewhere.

The territory was home to approximately 2.3 million people before the war, which Israel launched in retaliation for the terrorist attack of October 7, 2023 orchestrated by the rulers of Hamas de Gaza. Some 1,200 Israelis were killed in that attack, and another 251 were taken as hostages to Gaza. The Israel leader has said that 20 of those captives are still believed to be alive.

The Israel Ministry of Foreign Affairs dismissed the last accusation of genocide, saying that “it was completely based on Hamas’s lies campaign and washing those lies by others.” His statement continued to say that it was the Israeli people who were actually undergoing genocide by Hamas with the terrorist attack of October 7.

Numerous main human rights bodies, including Amnesty InternationalHuman Rights Watch, the Israeli Organization B WSELEM and the United Nations Special Rapporteur over the occupied Palestinian territories, had previously concluded that Israel’s military operation in Gaza was equivalent to genocide. Israel has rejected all accusations, saying that they are based on a false narrative of Hamas.

Since the group of academics declared a genocide on August 31, the Gaza Ministry of Health, led by Hamas, has reported at least 287 people killed by Israeli operations, taking the number of deaths for death at least 63,746, as well as 161,245 injured, since October 7, 2023.

Israel has not allowed international journalists to enter Gaza and operate freely since the war began, despite the repeated requests of News themezone and other organizations, so it is impossible to verify the figures of the Ministry of Health, which do not differentiate between civil and combatant victims. The UN considers the number of deaths informed by the Ministry the most accurate information available, and Israel, while constantly denies the figures, has not provided its own reports on the Palestinians killed during the war.

The UN Committee on the rights of people with disabilities said Wednesday, meanwhile, that at least 21,000 Gazan children had been disabled by Israeli aggressions since the war began.

Fear grows along with Israel’s offensive in Gaza City

Israel recently stated that the city of Gaza, the largest population center in the Palestinian territory, a “dangerous combat zone”, and its forces have advanced with a Controversial plan to seize the metropolisthat the leader of Israel says that it is necessary to defeat Hamas.

Parts of the city are already considered “red areas”, where the Palestinians have been ordered to evacuate before the heavy expected fighting.

That has left residents to the limit, including many who returned after fleeing the city in the initial stages of the war. With the Israeli excavators sweeping the land in the occupied neighborhoods and some Israeli politicians who openly support the massive relocation of Palestinians of Gaza, many of the city’s residents fear that the game can now mean leaving forever.

Moving costs thousands of dollars and finding space in the southern arise to launch a tent feel impossible. But being behind, many say, could be deadly.

“The Israeli forces, when they mark any area by red color and ask people to leave, they will really destroy it,” the News told The News. “Then it’s as if you decide whether living or dying. It’s very simple.”

Since Israel declared that the area was a combat area on Friday, a small fraction, about 14,840 Palestinians of almost 1 million that UN estimates are still in the city of Gaza, had left their homes from Monday, most flee to the south, according to the site management group, a joint humanitarian body that coordinates the assists of people in the displacement sites.

A fraction of them, around 2,200, have moved to new places within the city of Gaza after being displaced by Israeli attacks.

Alkurdi, project manager and consultant, told the AP that he could listen to the Israeli forces of the department where they are taking refuge while “erase the area completely.”

Zeitoun was once the largest neighborhood in the city of Gaza, full of markets, schools and clinics. During the last month, large stripes and the neighboring area of ​​Sabra have been flattened, according to satellite photos reviewed by the AP since the beginning of August and early September. The photos show entire blocks have been beaten or dragged into empty and sandy lots.

“It’s not partial as before. It’s 100%,” said Alkurdi. “The house, I tell my friends, keep dancing all day. Keep dancing, going to the right and the left like an earthquake.”

Many of the people in the city returned to the north during a high fire in January, hoping to find their intact homes. Alkurdi’s house was completely destroyed, so he now lives alone in a western area of ​​the city. His children and his wife were able to leave Gaza last year. He said he would flee south if his house fell under an evacuation order.

Netanyahu defended the offensive of the city of Gaza Before he began, insisting that the Israeli army had no choice but to complete the defeat of Hamas. “He has repeated The families of the captives have expressed their concern that expanding the offensive to the city of Gaza densely full will put them at greater risk.

For Gaza residents, the operation is already bringing more violence and the possibility of more disorders.

Amal Seyam is the general director of the Women’s Affairs Center in Gaza. Originally from the neighborhood of Taffah in the east of the city of Gaza, his home was destroyed by the bombing. For almost four months, he has been taking refuge in the neighborhood of Nasr in the west of the city, where he stays with his colleagues within the Women’s Center.

Seyam has been displaced five times since the war began, three times within the city and twice to the south, in Rafah and Khan Young. Every time, she fled with nothing.

When asked if he would consider leaving the city of Gaza as Israeli forces advance, Seyam said: “I will only leave when everyone who needs me here leaves. As long as there is a woman who needs me, I stay. Everything Gaza feels that he is in the red zone now anyway. The bombing is happening meters of us, not kilometers.”

He paused, his voice broke.

“Many people have begun to pack. Many have already left. Do you know what displacement means? It means moving once again, building your life once again, buying new things, blankets, tents, again.”
