The United Nations has urged Israel to prevent “acts of genocide” in Gaza and raised concerns over “ethnic cleansing” across the Palestinian territory and the occupied West Bank, Aljazeera reported. 

A new report investigating Israeli military conduct in the war on Gaza up until May 2025 and published by the UN Human Rights Office on Monday concluded that Israel has committed “serious violations of international humanitarian law, which in many cases may have amounted to war crimes and other atrocity crimes”.
