Bowen: Israel is accused of the gravest war crimes - how governments respond could haunt them for years

Amid accusations of war crimes in Gaza, Israel faces scrutiny over civilian casualties and humanitarian violations. The conflict, which began on 7 October 2023, has resulted in a significant number of Palestinian deaths and widespread destruction. International bodies like the International Committee of the Red Cross are alarmed by the disregard for the laws of war, raising concerns about potential genocide and urging accountability for all parties involved. The involvement of Israel's allies, especially the US, and the implications of mounting evidence of war crimes present a complex and challenging situation with far-reaching consequences.
