Two prominent Israeli human rights organizations, B’Tselem and Physicians for Human Rights Israel, have publicly accused the Israeli government of committing genocide against Palestinians in the Gaza Strip. This marks the first time that major Israeli groups have leveled such a charge against their own country since the onset of the nearly 22-month-long Israeli offensive in Gaza. According to their investigations and reports, the ongoing military actions meet the legal definition of genocide. The Israeli government has denied these allegations, maintaining that its operations target Hamas rather than Palestinians as a whole. The accusations have drawn international attention, as these organizations are among the most well-known and long-standing critics of Israeli policies. Their statements represent a significant shift in discourse within Israeli society regarding the conflict in Gaza.
