No Safe Place: An Investigation into Military Tactics in Gaza

In collaboration with Physicians for Human Rights - Israel
Event

Last summer’s 50-day military conflict in Gaza received saturated global media coverage and elicited a great deal of controversy, partly due to the high casualty rate among non-combatants in the Palestinian territory. Israel said it went to great lengths to avoid civilian deaths, while others — journalists on the scene and Palestinians in Gaza — said the Israeli military deliberately attacked non-military targets.

Physicians for Human Rights - Israel is the only independent international organization that was granted access to Gaza during the war. Now the organization has released its report, “No Safe Place,” based on 68 interviews with victims in Gaza hospitals, those in the field and at hospitals in Jordan, the West Bank, and East Jerusalem.

Join New America NYC and Physicians for Human Rights - Israel for a discussion of the main findings of the report and its implications for the region and the world.
