Israel likely to have committed Gaza war crimes: HRW
 

https://s1.yimg.com/bt/api/res/1.2/B...343ad710fe.jpgIsrael is likely to have committed war crimes in Gaza, Human Rights Watch said Thursday, a day after the army an**unced five criminal investigations into incidents involving its forces. The 50-day Gaza war between Israel and Hamas-led militants ended on August 26 after killing more than 2,100 Palestinians, most of them civilians, and 73 people on the Israeli side, 67 of them soldiers. The New York-based rights watchdog said in a statement that in three cases it examined, Israel caused "numerous civilian casualties in violation of the laws of war". The incidents were the separate shellings of two UN schools in **rthern Gaza on July 24 and 30, and a guided missile strike on a**ther UN school in the southern city of Rafah on August 3.
