Los ataques de Hamás a Israel y la respuesta israelí han sido desastrosos para los civiles.

La subsecuente campaña militar por tierra y aire en Gaza desde marzo de 2024 ha matado a más de 30 mil personas, un tercio de ellas mujeres y niños.

For weeks now, Israeli government officials have taken aim at the International Criminal Court, which they expected would issue arrest warrants against Israeli leaders for alleged war crimes. It is now clear they were right to be concerned. On May 20, ICC Chief Prosecutor Karim Khan announced that he has applied for arrest warrants for three leaders of Hamas—including its chief, Yahya Sinwar—as well as Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Yoav Gallant, the country’s minister of defense.

Israel’s subsequent air and ground campaign in Gaza has, as of March 2024, killed more than 30,000 people, an estimated two-thirds of whom were women and children.
