Israel War Crimes: Verified OSINT Evidence

What is the Sarkha Project?

The term Sarkha (Arabic: الصرخة, pronounced al-sarkhah) translates to "the scream" or "the outcry" in Arabic, including Palestinian and Levantine dialects.

Sarkha Project is an independent Open-Source Intelligence (OSINT) initiative that transforms publicly available digital evidence into structured evidence packages that support investigations into alleged international crimes.

Using rigorous OSINT methodologies, we collect, preserve, verify, corroborate, organize, and analyze publicly available evidence to reconstruct incidents, establish timelines, identify patterns of conduct, and prepare evidence packages for investigators, legal teams, United Nations mechanisms, human rights organizations, and international accountability efforts.

Our work examines alleged violations arising from Israel's military campaign following October 7, 2023, including attacks on healthcare, starvation, torture, unlawful killings, attacks on journalists, obstruction of humanitarian aid, unlawful detention, apartheid, ecocide, the killing of Hind Rajab, widespread destruction of civilian infrastructure, and other alleged violations of international humanitarian and criminal law.

Every finding is grounded in verified open-source evidence and prepared using methodologies designed to preserve evidentiary integrity, maintain chain of custody, and support future legal proceedings under international legal frameworks, including the Geneva Conventions and the Rome Statute.

Documentation makes accountability possible.

Our mission is to help carry that work forward.

  • More than 73,066 Palestinians killed

  • Over 172,000 Injured

  • estimated over 10,000 Under Rubble

As of 31 Mar 2026, the death toll in Gaza has reached alarming levels, with thousands of lives lost due to sustained military actions by Israel and ongoing genocide. Civilian casualties continue to mount, making it increasingly difficult for families in Gaza to find safety amidst the ongoing attacks. Humanitarian conditions worsen daily as critical infrastructure, including hospitals and schools, is obliterated, exacerbating the plight of Palestinians in Gaza and the West Bank. This includes analysis of patterns that constitute war crimes, supported by open-source investigations and legal frameworks.

In 2025, Israel's aid blockade on Gaza has intensified, exacerbating an already dire humanitarian crisis as starvation and malnutrition sweep through the region. The restrictions on essential goods, including food and medical supplies, have led to widespread food insecurity, leaving a significant portion of the population unable to meet their basic nutritional needs. Reports indicate a staggering increase in cases of stunting and wasting among children, while adults face deteriorating health conditions due to inadequate access to vital resources. This blockade not only violates international humanitarian law but also reflects the broader implications of displacement and conflict, perpetuating the cycle of suffering for the Palestinian people.

The importance of Palestinian Journalists

The courageous work of journalists in Gaza and the West Bank is nothing short of heroic. They risk their lives daily, documenting their own genocide and suffering, and in doing so, they ensure that the world's eyes are opened to the unimaginable realities they face. Through their efforts, we learn of the profound loss endured, with countless family members and colleagues falling victim to violence. Their selfless sacrifices contribute to the global movement for Palestine’s freedom and embody an unwavering commitment to humanity at large, which is of immeasurable value. Without their relentless pursuit of truth, the Sarkha Project would not exist; it thrives on the evidence of war crimes they courageously bring to light, reminding us all of the urgent need for justice and solidarity.

Sarkha Project extends its deepest gratitude and all individuals in Gaza and the West Bank who tirelessly share open-source evidence of these atrocities. Your unwavering bravery and commitment to truth not only illuminate the darkest corners of injustice, but also provide the foundation for accountability and change. We honor your sacrifices and stand in solidarity with your mission, recognizing that your voices are vital in the global pursuit of justice and human rights.
