These violations have been reported by various international organizations, including the United Nations, Amnesty International, Human Rights Watch, and Global Centre for the Responsibility to Protect. The Israeli government has responded to these accusations by stating that its use of force in the Gaza Strip are acts of self-defense rather than reprisals or punishment
