#Beatings. #SexualAssault. #PsychologicalAbuse. These are some of the horrors endured by the >250 men the #UnitedStates sent to #ElSalvador on flimsy evidence of gang membership, acc/to a new comprehensive report released on Wednesday by #HRW & #Cristosal, a #HumanRights group focused on #CentralAmerica.

"Up to 90 percent of Gaza’s water, sanitation, and hygiene infrastructure is destroyed, according to the UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs. Together with widespread malnutrition and an immunocompromised population, this has created a fertile storm for cases of GBS to spiral out of control."

In a First, Leading Israeli Rights Groups Accuse #Israel of #Gaza#Genocide
Israel says it is fighting against Hamas, not #Palestinians as a group. But 2 of Israel’s best-known #HumanRights groups said Monday that Israel was committing genocide against Palestinians in Gaza, adding fuel to a passionately fought international debate over whether the death & destruction there have crossed a moral red line.

All together, the Israeli campaign has amounted to “coordinated action to intentionally destroy Palestinian society in the Gaza Strip,” the organization wrote. “In other words: #Israel is committing #genocide against #Palestinians in the #Gaza Strip.”
…The debate over whether the #war in #Gaza constitutes #genocide has also played out at the #ICJ, where #SouthAfrica has brought a genocide case against #Israel. The court has yet to rule on the matter.
…Genocide has a specific definition in #InternationalLaw: particular acts carried out with intent to destroy a group in whole or in part. The accusation hits a painful nerve for Israel, a state founded after #Nazi Germany’s attempt to exterminate European Jewry.
In a report titled “Our Genocide,” B’Tselem cited the devastating effects of Israel’s war on ordinary #Palestinians to support their claim: the killing of tens of thousands of #Palestinians in #Gaza; the razing of huge areas of Palestinian cities; the forced displacement of nearly all of Gaza’s two million people; the restriction of food & other vital supplies.

The two groups were B’Tselem, a rights monitor that documents the effects of Israeli policies on #Palestinians, & Physicians for #HumanRights — #Israel. Their announcement was the first time major Israeli rights groups have publicly concluded that the #Gaza war is a #genocide, an assessment previously reached by some organizations like #AmnestyInternational.
