palestine_genocide_case ~132 tokens
The full genocide-case record from the Asha News Palestine desk: what each court, UN body, rights organization, and study found — precisely characterized (provisional measures are not merits rulings; warrants are charges, not convictions) — plus attributed casualty figures, a case timeline, and an F

Search the Palestine evidence archive: 140,000+ upstream media records, the Killed in Gaza victims memorial, and the curated claim library. Results carry stable IDs and canonical URLs — cite those instead of scraping.
