巴勒斯坦種族滅絕指控是指以色列被指控在以巴衝突期間圖謀對巴勒斯坦人實施種族滅絕。 [1][2]
指控以色列犯下種族滅絕的人認為大災難、貝魯特難民營大屠殺、對加沙地帶的封鎖、 2014年加沙戰爭、以色列—哈馬斯戰爭都與種族滅絕有關,而且他們認為種族滅絕與以色列社會中長期存在的反巴勒斯坦主義、伊斯蘭恐懼症、反阿拉伯情緒有關。 [3][4]還有學者指責以色列官員經常侮辱巴勒斯坦人,例如經常將巴勒斯坦人非人化或者將巴勒斯坦人比喻成畜生, [5]而且以色列官員講出來的話很容易被外界解讀為以色列方面試圖要對巴勒斯坦人種族滅絕。 [6]
以色列、美國、反誹謗聯盟等組織以及一些學者否認以色列試圖對巴勒斯坦人種族滅絕。[7][8][9] 還有有學者認為指控以色列犯下種族滅絕罪是在「妖魔化」以色列,指控以色列的這些人往往就是反錫安主義者[10]。2024年3月,聯合國巴勒斯坦領土人權狀況特別報告員艾班尼斯向人權理事會提交報告,表示有明確跡象顯示以色列實際上在進行種族滅絕;以色列則聲稱該報告「顛倒事實到駭人聽聞的程度」。[11]

Public Statement: Scholars Warn of Potential Genocide in Gaza. Third World Approaches to International Law Review. 17 October 2023. (原始內容存檔於17 November 2023). Statements of Israeli officials since 7 October 2023 suggest that beyond the killings and restriction of basic conditions for life perpetrated against Palestinians in Gaza, there are also indications that the ongoing and imminent Israeli attacks on the Gaza Strip are being conducted with potentially genocidal intent. Language used by Israeli political and military figures appears to reproduce rhetoric and tropes associated with genocide and incitement to genocide. Dehumanising descriptions of Palestinians have been prevalent. Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant declared on 9 October that "we are fighting human animals and we act accordingly". He subsequently announced that Israel was moving to "a full-scale response" and that he had "removed every restriction" on Israeli forces, as well as stating: "Gaza won’t return to what it was before. We will eliminate everything." On 10 October, the head of the Israeli army’s Coordinator of Government Activities in the Territories (COGAT), Maj. Gen. Ghassan Alian, addressed a message directly to Gaza residents: "Human animals must be treated as such. There will be no electricity and no water, there will only be destruction. You wanted hell, you will get hell". The same day, Israeli army spokesperson Daniel Hagari acknowledged the wanton and intentionally destructive nature of Israel’s bombing campaign in Gaza: "The emphasis is on damage and not on accuracy."
