UN investigators accuse Israel of extermination in West Bank and genocide in Gaza

newsit.gr (Greek) —

UN-appointed investigators accuse Israel of committing the crime against humanity of "extermination" in the West Bank and continuing "genocide" in Gaza, according to a new report presented Monday. The report by the Independent International Commission of Inquiry details widespread attacks on civilians in the West Bank, including torture, rape, and persecution, and says Israel's actions in Gaza show intent to destroy the Palestinian population. Israel rejects the findings as misinformation. The commission also criticizes the Palestinian Authority for suppressing political opposition. The report was released ahead of Israeli elections and follows a similar September 2025 report on Gaza.
