Foreign Office Full genocide risk report yet to be released
The Guardian
|August 09, 2025
The Foreign Office has failed to release an internal assessment made in June last year that reportedly concluded there was no serious risk of Israel committing genocide in Gaza.
It has also refused to disclose if an updated assessment has been made.
The rights group Amnesty International tabled a freedom of information request in June to see the 2024 assessment, but the officials failed to reply within the statutory one-month deadline.
Amnesty lodged a formal complaint with the Information Commissioner's Office and asked if there was an updated assessment of Israel's intent to comply with international law including a re-examination of the risk of genocide.
An increasing number of legal experts, as well as two prominent Israeli NGOs, have recently declared Israel is showing genocidal intent in Gaza, but the issue is yet to be determined by the International Court of Justice (ICJ).
Yesterday, the Liberal Democrat leader, Ed Davey, described the new Israeli plan to occupy Gaza City and displace tens of thousands of Palestinians as ethnic cleansing.
