Who will hold Israel to account for committing war crimes? | Inside Story
A report by a UN-backed commission of inquiry finds Israel has committed war crimes and crimes against humanity during the more than eight months of war in Gaza.
It also says Hamas and other Palestinian armed groups violated international humanitarian law during their attack on southern Israel in October.
The conclusions follow thousands of interviews with victims and advanced forensic analysis of medical reports and satellite images.
But both a UN Security Council resolution and a binding ruling by the UN’s top court have failed to halt Israel’s offensive.
Will this damning evidence further isolate Benjamin Netanyahu’s right-wing government?
