This section documents the massacres targeting Palestinian families, where homes were destroyed on top of their inhabitants, killing all or most of the family members. These crimes represent a clear violation of the Fourth Geneva Convention, which prohibits targeting civilians and emphasizes the protection of families from violence and mass killings. They also constitute a blatant violation of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, which guarantees the right to life and personal safety for every individual. The 1977 Additional Protocol I reinforces the protection of families from indiscriminate attacks, and the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court criminalizes any acts of genocide or targeting of families as part of crimes against humanity.
