An international human rights group has accused Israel of committing war crimes during the brutal 50-day war with Gaza which left more than 2,100 Palestinians dead. Human Rights Watch has said it reached the conclusion after investigating three attacks on or near United Nations-run schools housing displaced Palestinians, in which at least 45 people were killed. The New York-based group, which carried out field research and interviews with witnesses, said no military targets were apparent in the area of the schools and some of the attacks were indiscriminate.
