Israel Rejects UN Inquiry’s Allegations of Extermination in Hebron

Israel on Monday dismissed allegations in a report by a United Nations commission of inquiry as “political propaganda.”

The report accused Israel of committing crimes against humanity against Palestinians in the occupied West Bank, including extermination. The allegations included a focus on Hebron.

The commission also accused Israel of continuing to commit genocide in the Gaza Strip, extending its findings beyond the West Bank.

Israel’s response rejected the allegations as politically motivated. The accusations of extermination in the West Bank and genocide in Gaza remain the findings attributed to the UN commission.
