Palestinians in Gaza 'treated as subhuman'

Israel guilty of genocide, warns Amnesty

- CHRIS HUGHES

ISRAEL is committing genocide against Gaza's Palestinians, according to a report from Amnesty International.

The human rights organisation's 296-page dossier, entitled You Feel Like You Are Subhuman, says Benjamin Netanyahu's government has unleashed hell on the Strip.

It calls for an immediate end to all UK arms sales to Israel.

Agnes Callamard, Amnesty International's secretary general, said: "Israel has carried out acts prohibited under the Genocide Convention, with the specific intent to destroy Palestinians in Gaza.

"These acts include killings, causing serious harm and deliberately inflicting on Palestinians in Gaza conditions calculated to bring about their physical destruction.

"Month after month, Israel has treated Palestinians in Gaza as a subhuman group unworthy of human rights and dignity."
