Eighteen months into Israel’s genocidal war on Gaza, more thanPalestinians, mostly women and children, have been confirmed killed. At least 10,000 more are missing, buried under the rubble and presumed dead.

The Al Jazeera Investigative Unit’s feature documentaryexposes Israeli war crimes through the use of videos and photographs posted online by Israeli soldiers themselves.Here we present the database that lies behind that film, described by international law expert Rodney Dixon as “a treasure trove you very seldom come across, … something which I think prosecutors will be licking their lips at."
