Francesca Albanese, the UN Special Rapporteur on the Occupied Palestinian Territories, says Israel is committing genocide against the Palestinian people in Gaza and the West Bank. In her report, 'Anatomy of a Genocide', she accuses the Netanyahu government of undermining international law in order to achieve genocidal goals in the occupied territories.
