Sources & Documentation
The evidence gathered on this site does not stand alone. Every claim, every statistic, every documented incident is grounded in a body of verifiable sources — field reports, legal analyses, news articles, investigative journalism, satellite imagery, and eyewitness testimonies. This page provides access to those sources in two forms: a structured spreadsheet of written references, and a curated video playlist documenting events on the ground.
Written sources are organized in a spreadsheet per chapter and subchapters, containing links to written sources drawn from international institutions, human rights organizations, investigative media, and legal bodies. Visual evidence plays a critical role in documenting systematic attacks on healthcare. The curated playlist linked below brings together footage from hospitals, testimony from medical staff, and reports from journalists and aid workers operating under extreme conditions. The videos include documentary segments, news reports, and firsthand testimonies. Viewer discretion is advised — some content depicts destroyed medical infrastructure and accounts of violence against healthcare workers and patients.
Source categories include:
UN & WHO
Official documentation from United Nations bodies, WHO field reports, and interagency humanitarian briefings.
NGO & Human Rights
Reports from organizations such as Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF), Human Rights Watch, Amnesty International, and B'Tselem.
News articles
Time-sensitive reporting from verified news outlets covering specific incidents, statements, and developments on the ground as they occurred.
Investigative Media
Long-form journalism, in-depth investigations, and OSINT analyses going beyond daily news coverage to establish broader patterns.
Legal & Academic
International law analyses, academic papers on IHL violations, and court submissions
Testimonies
Firsthand accounts from medical workers, patients, and aid organizations operating on the ground.
A note on methodology
While a lot of evidence is primary rather tha interpretative, like video evidence of destruction of hospitals or satellite images of the trucks denied entry, there will be those that will argue that sources like WHO, MSF, or Human Rights Watch are politically motivated and should be discounted. However, when organizations with competing interests converge on the same findings, that convergence is itself evidence. B'Tselem is Israeli. The ICRC is politically neutral by institutional mandate. MSF has documented abuses by governments on all sides of every conflict it operates in. The sources disagree on much — and agree on this. The standard is international humanitarian law. Too often, claiming bias is used to dismiss a source without engaging with its specific findings as an avoidance strategy. If a report is wrong, demonstrate it: identify the incorrect facts, the flawed methodology, the correct record. Institutional labelling is not a substitute for factual engagement.
"What is happening in Gaza is not just a humanitarian crisis —
it is a deliberate dismantling of life. We are trying to keep people alive with empty hands, a stethoscope, and whatever sense we have left."
— Dr. Majed Jaber, 25, Gazan physician, August 2025
