Archivegenocide.com: view the footage collected from Gaza in one place

- Archivegenocide.com is a website created by the filmmaker B’Tselem (an Israeli human rights organization) that aggregates user-submitted video footage and photographic evidence from the war in Gaza. The site aims to serve as a central repository for documentation of alleged war crimes, echoing the role that video evidence played in other recent conflicts (e.g. Syria, Ukraine). - The name itself is a portmanteau of “archive” and “genocide”; the choice of wording reflects the site’s framing of the events it documents as genocidal. The platform is controversial because its premise presumes a legal conclusion that many governments and international bodies have not yet formally adopted. - Why it matters: Digital archives of this kind are increasingly used by human rights investigators, journalists, and legal bodies (including the ICC) as a primary source of evidence. This site represents a specific attempt to centralize such evidence from the current conflict, which has already generated an enormous volume of user-generated content.
