Original Note:
The UN definition of genocide requires intent for it to be a genocide. https://www.un.org/en/genocideprevention/genocide.shtml The acts of IDF to prevent civilian losses shows the lack of the prerequisite of "intent to destroy, in whole or in part" the Palestinian population in Gaza and therefore it's not a genocide. https://www.idf.il/en/mini-sites/the-hamas-terrorist-organization/how-is-the-idf-minimizing-harm-to-civilians-in-gaza/
