Amnesty International has condemned the situation for Palestinian women and girls in Gaza, marking it as one of the most severe forms of discrimination and violence against women. According to the organization, the continuous Israeli assaults have led to extensive destruction of essential healthcare infrastructure, particularly reproductive health services. This alarming situation highlights the urgent need for international attention to women's rights in conflict zones.

In March 2025, a United Nations investigative committee reported that Israel was systematically employing sexual and reproductive violence against Palestinians, constituting acts of genocide through the destruction of women's healthcare facilities and obstructing access to essential medical services. This accusation points to a broader pattern of gender-based violence in the region, with particular focus on how such actions adversely impact the health and rights of women and girls during armed conflict.

Furthermore, the committee noted in September 2025 that these actions could legally amount to genocide, raising severe concerns about the humanitarian implications of Israeli policies in Gaza. Citing a previous report from December 2024, Amnesty underscored the grave physical and psychological harm inflicted on women, alongside the imposition of harsh living conditions that are detrimental to their health and wellbeing. The organization calls for immediate action to address these human rights violations and ensure the protection of women in conflict situations.
