Hamas has welcomed a resolution by the International Association of Genocide Scholars declaring that Israel’s actions in Gaza met the legal definition of a genocide, Reuters reports.
“This prestigious scholarly stance reinforces the documented evidence and facts presented before international courts,” said Ismail Al-Thawabta, director of the Gaza government media office.
The resolution “places a legal and moral obligation on the international community to take urgent action to stop the crime, protect civilians, and hold the leaders of the occupation accountable”, he said.
