HRW: Israel Is Committing Crime of Extermination and Acts of Genocide
(Of course, the US State Department disagrees)
The State Department, which is implicated in Israel's crimes, said it disagreed with the report by Dave DeCamp December 19, 2024 at 3:38 pm ET Categories NewsTags Gaza, Israel, Palestine
Human Rights Watch said in a report published on Thursday that Israel is committing the crime of extermination and acts of genocide by depriving the civilian population of Gaza of the necessary amount of water to survive.
HRW said in a press release that its 179-page report found “that Israeli authorities have intentionally deprived Palestinians in Gaza of access to safe water for drinking and sanitation needed for basic human survival.”
“Israeli authorities and forces cut off and later restricted piped water to Gaza; rendered most of Gaza’s water and sanitation infrastructure useless by cutting electricity and restricting fuel; deliberately destroyed and damaged water and sanitation infrastructure and water repair materials; and blocked the entry of critical water supplies,” HRW said.
