The London-based Institute for Action Against Armed Violence, citing The Autonomous via Mehr News Agency, announced that Israel has closed investigations into war crimes and assaults committed by its forces in gaza and the occupied West Bank in 88 percent of cases without imposing any penalties.
The institute reviewed 52 incidents occurring between October 2023 and June 2025, all either openly acknowledged by the israeli military or reported by international media. These incidents involve 1,303 Palestinian fatalities, 1,880 injuries, and two allegations of torture.
Findings reveal only one conviction: a seven-month prison sentence for an Israeli reserve soldier convicted in February this year after footage showed him abusing prisoners at the Sde Teyman prison.
In five other confirmed cases of misconduct, authorities issued only internal reprimands. Of the remaining 46 cases, seven were closed with no wrongdoing found, while 39 still remain unresolved. The institute characterizes this pattern as indicative of “impunity from allegations.”
Commenting on the report, the institute stated that these numbers reflect a system that vigorously shields its forces from accountability and punishment-even in some of the most severe and publicly scrutinized cases.
Among high-profile ongoing investigations are: the killing of at least 112 Palestinians queuing for flour distribution in Gaza City in February 2024; an attack on Palestinian refugee tents in Rafah during May resulting in at least 45 deaths; and at least 31 casualties on June 1st when Palestinians headed toward food distribution centers in Rafah.
