Three Palestinian human rights groups have blamed the international community for Israel’s “deliberate massacres” of civilians in Gaza, Al Jazeera reports.

“The international community’s failure to end the ongoing genocide” has enabled Israeli attacks, including the latest “horrific massacres” in the al-Mawasi area, which killed at least 90, and in the Shati refugee camp, where Israeli warplanes bombed Palestinians at prayer killing 22 people, the rights groups said.

“International inaction continues to embolden Israel to perpetrate international crimes,” the Palestinian Centre for Human Rights, Al-Haq, and the Al Mezan Center for Human Rights said in a joint statement.

“States arming and financing Israel’s genocidal acts are complicit in these crimes, including genocide,” they said.
