Summary: Ongoing genocide continues in Gaza as a recent report by Euro-Med Human Rights Monitor reveals Israel’s genocidal campaign, resulting in the deaths, injuries, and displacement of nearly 10% of the population. The report highlights Israel’s violations of international law through targeted killings, military strikes on civilians, and the ongoing blockade depriving Palestinians of essential services. Despite supposed disengagement in 2005, Israel maintains control over governance, intensifying violence with Operation Iron Swords in 2023. Global protests calling for justice and accountability have erupted, fueled by the ongoing genocide and the commitment of activists to raise awareness and pressure world leaders for action.
A recent report by Euro-Med Human Rights Monitor exposes Israel’s genocidal campaign in Gaza over the past year, highlighting the systematic violence and atrocities committed against civilians. According to the report, nearly 10% of Gaza’s population has been killed, injured, detained, or is missing due to relentless Israeli military assaults. The destruction and loss have disproportionately affected women and children, with over 50,000 Palestinians killed, including 42,000 documented deaths by the Gaza Ministry of Health, and nearly 100,000 injured.
The report sheds light on Israel’s violations of international law, pointing to targeted killings, military strikes on civilian areas, displacement camps, and humanitarian zones. These acts have caused severe psychological and physical trauma, exacerbated by the ongoing blockade that deprives Palestinians of essential services like food, water, and medical care. Israel’s occupation of Palestinian territories, which began in 1967, is cited as the root cause of the suffering. Despite its claimed “disengagement” from Gaza in 2005, Israel has maintained control over crucial aspects of governance, solidifying its occupation status.
Following Israel’s 2023 “Operation Iron Swords” to eliminate Hamas, the violence intensified, worsening the already dire conditions in Gaza. Euro-Med Monitor calls for international action, recommending an arms embargo on Israel, sanctions, and compensation for the victims. The organization demands the complete withdrawal of Israeli forces from Gaza and the return of displaced Palestinians to their homes, stressing the need to protect freedom of movement and prevent future atrocities.
In response to the unfolding crisis, global protests have erupted. Over the past year, the U.S. Palestinian Community Network reported some of the largest antiwar protests in decades, with thousands demonstrating across the country. Despite media silence and the immense challenge of sustaining such movements, the commitment of activists remains strong. The fight for Palestinian liberation continues amid ongoing Israeli bombings of Gaza, the West Bank, Lebanon, and Yemen. These protests are fueled by the ongoing genocide, with participants determined to raise awareness and pressure world leaders to act.
As the world witnesses a year of unspeakable horror in Gaza, the call for justice and accountability grows louder. The atrocities committed have left cities destroyed and families decimated, but the resolve of the Palestinian people and their supporters remains unbroken. The struggle for liberation continues, with hope that future generations will see a just and peaceful resolution.
