Hamas and at least four other Palestinian armed groups committed numerous war crimes and
crimes against humanity against civilians during the 7 October attack on southern Israel, the
campaign group Human Rights Watch says.
A new report accuses the hundreds of gunmen who breached the Gaza border fence of violations
including deliberate and indiscriminate attacks on civilians, wilful killing of persons in
custody, sexual and gender-based violence, hostage-taking, mutilation of bodies and looting.
It also found the killing of civilians and hostage-taking were "central aims of the planned
attack" and not an "afterthought".
