Original Note:
Collective punishment is illegal under international law. Israel cut off electricity, fuel, water, food & medical supplies to 2.3m civilians & dropped thousands of bombs on densely populated areas killing 10,000+. Israel's actions have been called genocide. https://guide-humanitarian-law.org/content/article/3/collective-punishment/ https://www.reuters.com/world/un-experts-say-israels-strikes-gaza-amount-collective-punishment-2023-10-12/ https://www.amnesty.org/en/latest/news/2023/10/damning-evidence-of-war-crimes-as-israeli-attacks-wipe-out-entire-families-in-gaza/ https://www.aljazeera.com/opinions/2023/11/2/a-genocide-is-under-way-in-palestine https://www.pbs.org/newshour/world/south-africa-recalls-ambassador-to-israel-and-accuses-country-of-genocide-in-gaza https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2023/oct/16/the-language-being-used-to-describe-palestinians-is-genocidal
