A three-member UN commission of inquiry concluded that Israel is committing genocide in Gaza by deliberately targeting Palestinian children, saying its actions inflict death and severe bodily and mental harm on hundreds of thousands of children. The panel said those crimes form "part of a deliberate strategy to destroy the future of the Palestinians in Gaza by targeting their children" and urged governments and courts to pursue accountability, including criminal investigations. Israel rejected the report as a "libellous sham," and the findings set up a deep international split over arms sales, sanctions, and possible prosecutions.
