Specifically in Gaza Palestine Israel the ability of humans in that area to utilize their technologies (communications devices) to document and disseminate what’s going on there. Where silencing journalism is often considered illegal I’d expect cutting off civilian communication ought to be illegal too.

@jshm2 absolutely! yet if a community population or group were unable to communicate their suffering to the outside world as it’s happening, might that be akin to the crime itself. Suffering might have been averted, at least reduced, but no one knew it was happening until it was too late (well underway)
Cutting internet so the world can’t see you execute citizens very well should be..

A war crime? No. An act of hostile aggression, absolutely.
