HRW: Israel's Gaza Displacements Constitute War Crimes

Human Rights Watch has accused Israel of committing war crimes and crimes against humanity by causing the mass displacement of Palestinians in Gaza, with 1.9 million people affected. The report claims this amounts to "forcible transfer" and potentially "ethnic cleansing," as Israeli evacuation orders have been inconsistent and often unsafe. Israel maintains its actions are lawful and aimed at civilian protection, while HRW argues there is no military justification for the scale of displacement. The situation remains dire, with limited humanitarian aid reaching those in need.
