U.N. raises war crimes concerns over Israel-Hamas conflict

Friday, October 27, 2023 6:25 PM GMT

U.N.: War crimes being committed in Israel-Hamas conflict; collective punishment, forcible transfer, hostage-taking cited. U.N. concerned war crimes being committed in Israel-Hamas conflict; cites collective punishment, forcible transfer, hostage-taking.

The United Nations said Friday it was concerned that war crimes were being committed on both sides in the conflict between Israel and Hamas.

The U.N. human rights office cited forcible transfer, collective punishment and the taking of hostages as the war continued into its 21st day.

"We are concerned that war crimes are being committed. We are concerned about the collective punishment of Gazans in response to the atrocious attacks by Hamas, which also amounted to war crimes," spokeswoman Ravina Shamdasani told a press conference in Geneva.

She said that it was for an independent court of law to qualify whether war crimes had been committed.

Israel has heavily bombarded Gaza since Hamas gunmen stormed across the border on October 7, killing 1,400 people, mostly civilians, kidnapping more than 220 others, according to Israeli officials.

The Health Ministry in the Hamas-run Gaza Strip said the strikes have killed more than 7,000 people, mainly civilians and many of them children, leading to growing calls for protection of innocents caught up in the conflict.
