A new UN investigative report has concluded that both Israeli authorities and Palestinian armed groups have committed war crimes and crimes against humanity since and in the aftermath of Hamas' October 7th last year. The findings of the U.N. Independent International Commission of Inquiry on the Occupied Palestinian Territory were presented to the Human Rights Council in Geneva earlier Wednesday by its Chair – South African jurist, Dr Navi Pillay.
