UN discusses genocide prevention and its past failures

The United Nations General Assembly is convening to address the responsibility of nations in preventing genocide, war crimes, and other humanitarian crises, amid ongoing situations in Gaza and Darfur. Critics express skepticism about the effectiveness of potential new protocols, given past failures to intervene in genocides, such as in Rwanda and the current violence in Gaza, where over 73,000 Palestinians have reportedly died since October 2023. The UN defines genocide as acts intended to destroy specific groups, and its historical inaction raises concerns about future commitments.
