According to Human Rights Watch, Israel is engaging in ethnic cleansing through mass forced displacements in Gaza.

Human Rights Watch has accused Israeli authorities of committing war crimes and crimes against humanity in Gaza by forcibly displacing Palestinian people. The report states that the displacement has been systematic and part of a state policy, constituting crimes against humanity. Israeli authorities have denied these accusations, claiming they operate in compliance with international law. Israel invaded Gaza last year in response to attacks by Hamas-led gunmen, resulting in thousands of deaths and widespread destruction. Israeli troops have recently moved tens of thousands of people from northern Gaza to create buffer zones and security corridors. Human Rights Watch believes this displacement is likely planned to be permanent, amounting to ethnic cleansing. The Israeli military denies seeking to create permanent buffer zones and has promised displaced Palestinians will be allowed to return after the war. The humanitarian situation in Gaza has been dire, with reports from aid groups and international bodies highlighting the suffering of the population. Israeli actions in Gaza have raised concerns about potential violations of international law and human rights.
