Edgar Mannheimer
About this episode

It's official, at least if you ask the world's leading human rights organisation, Amnesty International: Israel is guilty of committing the crime of genocide against the Palestinian people in Gaza.

In today's episode the Secretary General of Amnesty International herself, Agnes Callamard, walks us through the organisation's damning report on the genocide in Gaza.

We know there’s a lot going on in Syria right now, and we are working on bringing you a special series on the developing situation there. But the war on Gaza is ongoing and this report from Amnesty International is historic. So please take the time to listen to the head of Amnesty, Agnes Callamard.
