Massacres against civilians are considered a flagrant violation of international humanitarian law, and the Fourth Geneva Convention prohibits targeting civilians or endangering their lives and safety during armed conflicts. International agreements, including the 1977 Additional Protocol I, require states and combatants to distinguish between military objectives and civilians, criminalizing any deliberate attack or assault on civilians. Article 27 of the Geneva Convention mandates that civilians must be protected at all times from acts of violence, and their lives, physical, or mental integrity must not be violated, including through violence, assault, murder, or torture.

Massacre in the Al-Qassasib Area
Mayar Al-Jakhbeer is one of the survivors of a brutal massacre committed against the Al-Malfouh family. The family had sought refuge in a house in the Al-Qassaseeb area of Jabalia Camp. On December 11, 2023, Israeli occupation forces stormed the house, destroying its contents, and subjected the children, women, and men to brutal torture. The men were mutilated with sharp objects in front of their families. The forces then deceived the survivors by assuring them they were in a safe area and told them not to leave the house. Once they fell asleep, the occupation forces bombed the room where they were resting.
