A United Nations inquiry into the events that transpired in the war in Gaza found that both Israel and Hamas violated international law and have committed war crimes during the fateful Oct. 7 attacks and its aftermath.
The findings, which covered investigations up to the end of 2023, were disputed by Israel. The reports provided disturbing information on how both Israel and Hamas disregarded the rules of international law. The conflict has been ongoing for more than eight months.
"Amid months of losses and despair, retribution and atrocities, the only tangible result has been compounding the immense suffering of both Palestinians and Israelis, with civilians, yet again, bearing the brunt of decisions by those in power," the Commission stated, as per UN News.
