Israel’s attacks on reproductive healthcare in Gaza ‘genocidal’: UN probe
Israel has carried out “genocidal acts” against Palestinians by systematically destroying women’s healthcare facilities during its war on Gaza and using sexual violence as a war strategy, United Nations experts have said.
On Thursday, the Geneva-based Independent International Commission of Inquiry said in a new report that Israel “intentionally attacked and destroyed” Gaza’s main fertility centre while simultaneously blocking medicine for pregnancies, deliveries and neonatal care from entering the enclave.
The report found that Israel used sexual, reproductive and gender-based violence as a strategy of war.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu lashed out at the Human Rights Council describing the findings as an 'anti-Israel circus."
