Palestinian armed groups led by Hamas launched coordinated attacks from Gaza into southern Israel, alongside rocket fire. A UN Commission of Inquiry later found war crimes including intentionally directing attacks against civilians, murder, cruel treatment and hostage-taking. Israeli civilians and security personnel were killed; civilians were abducted and taken to Gaza. The attack occurred amid decades of occupation, blockade and failed political processes, context that does not excuse deliberate attacks on civilians. The Commission’s findings and attribution are stated explicitly.
