Human Rights Watch: Trump plan could become crime against humanity
6 February 2025 14:27 GMT
Adam Coogle, deputy Middle East director at Human Rights Watch, has warned that should US President Donald Trump's plan to "clear out" Gaza become state policy, "it would potentially amount to state cleansing".
"If done with intent, it would be forced displacement. And if that forced displacement was done as part of a systematic and widespread attack against the civilian population as a matter of state policy, it would actually be a crime against humanity,” he said.
