Israeli Human Rights Groups Allege "Genocide" in Gaza

As suffering and starvation continues unimpeded in Gaza, the chorus of criticism is becoming louder, and not just from abroad. In an unprecedented move, Yuli Novak & Guy Shalev, the executive directors of B'Tselem and Physicians for Human Rights-Israel, two leading Israeli human rights groups, tell Christiane why they believe their government is committing genocide in Gaza. Then former National Institutes of Health chief Francis Collins discusses the chilling impact of science and research cuts on American healthcare under Donald Trump's second term. Also, as Trump ramps up pressure on Putin's grinding war, Nick Paton Walsh has a special report on one of the country's youngest victims, Tymur, aged ten. Plus, after recent elections in Japan saw the obscure far-right party, Sanseito, make dramatic gains in the recent election, Christiane discusses whether Trump or tourists are behind the stunning results with Tomohiko Taniguchi, a former advisor to longtime Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe and Mira Rapp-Hooper, who was a special Asia advisor to President Biden. Thirty-five years since Saddam Hussein invaded Kuwait, from her archives, Christiane's report on America's massive military buildup in the Saudi desert ahead of their effort to repel Saddam, and the weary U.S. troops she met there, worried about insufficient supplies and what was yet to come.
