Almost half of Latinos believe that Israel is committing a genocide against Palestinian civilians, the highest proportion among the U.S.'s largest demographics, according to a new poll by The Economist/YouGov.

Concretely, 46% of Latino respondents said this was the case, compared to 40% of Blacks and 30% of Whites. In contrast, 30% of Latinos said Israel's actions do not amount to genocide, a stance shared by 18% of Blacks and 41% of Whites. The remaining percentages said they weren't sure.
