Two Israeli rights groups said Israel was carrying out "coordinated, deliberate action to destroy Palestinian society in the Gaza strip."

A pair of leading Israeli human rights groups has accused Israel of “committing genocide against Palestinians in Gaza,” becoming the first such organizations to make the claim.

Two prominent Israeli rights groups on Monday said their country is committing genocide in Gaza , the first time that local Jewish-led organizations have made such accusations against Israel during nearly 22 months of war.

Over 250 lorries carrying aid entered the Gaza Strip on Tuesday, according to the Israeli military, three days after it began increasing the flow of supplies into the embattled Palestinian territory amid an outcry over reports of imminent famine.

The local pause in fighting came days after ceasefire efforts between Israel and Hamas appeared to be in doubt.

Israeli strikes have killed at least 34 Palestinians, health officials in Gaza said, a day after Israel eased aid restrictions due to a worsening humanitarian crisis. Israel on Sunday announced a pause in military operations in certain areas for 10 hours daily to improve aid flow.
