A UN-mandated investigative commission has leveled serious allegations against Israel, accusing the state of committing “extermination” within the West Bank while continuing to engage in “genocide” against Palestinians in Gaza. According to the report, Israeli military operations—compounded by ongoing settler violence—reflect a systematic strategy intended to displace the population and render living conditions in the region impossible. Investigators characterized these actions as a coordinated state policy, citing instances of torture, sexual violence, and the willful killing of civilians as clear violations of international law.

Israel’s government has vehemently rejected these findings, dismissing the report as part of a biased "misinformation campaign" designed to delegitimize the state. Meanwhile, the investigation also scrutinized the Palestinian Authority, accusing it of suppressing internal political dissent and failing to address violence committed by its own security forces against rival factions. As the commission prepares to present its findings to the UN General Assembly, the report serves as a stark indictment of the worsening human rights crisis, calling for an immediate end to the occupation and accountability for the widespread atrocities documented over the past year.
