  1. The Israeli government ( via minister Yoav Gallant) declared their intent to starve the population of Gaza of food. That covers the element of intent to commit genocide. And they have followed through with it, declaring they won't let UNRWA work in Gaza anymore, and then deliberately hunting and killing alternative food aid workers that they had agreed to work with. They have also destroyed the conditions necessary for life in Gaza by destroying the infrastructure, housing, and medical facilities, and that covers another element of genocide in the Genocide Convention. Lastly, signatories to the Genocide Convention are required to PREVENT genocide, so you can't (legally) just wait until the genocide has been committed and then say "Oh! NOW I recognise it was genocide!" No, signatories must PREVENT genocide. Also, they must do all they can to STOP the genocide, AND they must stop anyone who is AIDING and ABETTING the genocide, such as by providing all the weapons to carry it out. The UK should be doing all they can to STOP the US from providing all the weapons to Israel. Those are the UK government's responsibilities under the Genocide Convention.
