In addition to killing more than 37,300 Palestinians, Israel's brutal eight-month attack and the implementation of a blockade in Gaza have plunged the region into a humanitarian crisis, with international aid agencies reporting widespread hunger and hundreds of thousands of people on the verge of starvation.
Israel is also accused of committing genocide in the International Court, whose latest decision ordered Israel to immediately stop its operations in the southern city of Rafah, where more than 1 million Palestinians sought refuge from war before it was invaded on May 6.
