The Dahiya doctrine, or Dahya doctrine, is an Israeli belligerent tactic involving the large-scale destruction of civilian infrastructure, or domicide, to pressure hostile targeted parties. The doctrine is named after the Dahieh neighborhood (also transliterated as Dahiyeh and Dahiya) of Beirut, where Hezbollah had its headquarters during the 2006 Lebanon War.
The doctrine was outlined by former Israeli Chief of General Staff Gadi Eizenkot. The Israeli Colonel Gabi Siboni wrote that Israel "should target economic interests and the centers of civilian power that support the organization". The logic is to harm the civilian population so much that they will then turn against the targeted party, forcing that party to sue for peace.
In the context of the Gaza "war," GLOSM/PARES documents the use of this doctrine since October 22, 2023, and continues to see a pattern that it is not about "targeting economic interest." It is about conflating the targeting of interests as the same by destroying objects used for food production, healthcare, humanitarian assistance, housing, education, religion, culture, and heritage, including people who are either inside or in the vicinity of these objects in populated areas, to force people to turn against the resistance, and to force the resistance to surrender.
However, the archive of the Daliyah doctrine on populated areas is about what you read: 'areas'. The doctrine has been used on many levels, including acts, which you normally would describe as genocide.
GLOSM/PARES considers the use of this doctrine on populated areas as an act part of the crime of extermination.

Starvation is a severe deficiency in caloric energy intake, resulting in a level below that needed to maintain an organism's life. It is the most extreme form of malnutrition. In humans, prolonged starvation can cause permanent organ damage. In Gaza, it leads to a slow-paced death.
Unlike reports in the media, we put collected and documented information in the context of where it originated, which many people in the world have already forgotten.
Because "no food" as ordered by Yoav Gallant in October 2023 has been conflated by subjecting the order to all levels of food accessibility. It has nothing to do with keeping food away from Hamas, as everyone in Gaza has been, and is still, treated as Hamas.
The data reports on this page are about how the Israelis are seeking ways to prevent all Palestinians in Gaza from obtaining food. And, they put it as usual in the context of their obsession with something they created themselves in 1987: Hamas.
GENOCIDE i
There is the act of genocide, which means crimes amounting to genocide, which we term 'genocide I', and there is the act of expression to incite, fuel, inflame, and support the act of genocide, which we term 'genocide II'.

TARGETING HUMANITARIAN AID
In the context of Gaza, humanitarian aid is material and logistical assistance to people in need who are homeless, refugees, and victims of Israeli wars and famine. The primary objective of humanitarian aid is to save lives, alleviate suffering, and maintain human dignity. But Israeli practices of conflation and organized instigation of staging protests at border crossings and attacking aid convoys have prompted us to put the research targeting and or destroying humanitarian aid in the context of starvation, as the Israelis are hiding willfully behind their unproven claims, and the captives while having more than 9.000 Palestinian illegally in concentration camps.
This research is not ready for publication yet.
GENOCIDE i
There is the act of genocide, which means committing crimes amounting to genocide, which we term 'genocide I', and there is the act of expression to incite, fuel, inflame, and support the act of genocide, which we term 'genocide II'. However, we distinguish the act of expression from the act of resorting to the act of support by foreign governments, as the latter is either collusion, complicity, or both, depending on what factors are involved.

Force rationized food availability is a term we use to refer to food distribution via field kitchens and similar food distribution points as they emerge as a result of the Israeli occupying belligerent's weaponization of food using the method of blocking food supply into Gaza.

UNRWA IN THE CONTEXT OF STARVATION
The medical treatment of malnutrition involves providing vitamin and mineral supplements. high-energy and protein nutritional supplements – if the other treatments are not enough on their own. We're talking about food and medicines. But medicines are also needed to treat the wounded from Israeli attacks, especially those who need treatment after surgery. They would face the same ordeal as those who are suffering from malnutrition. Because the Israelis are using food and medicines as a weapon of war. That is why we view starvation in a broader context.
ROOTS OF TARGETING AND OR DESTROYING UNRWA
In November 2023, we found a social media post from the Cyprus foreign ministry that reads the country is ready to help the Israelis. "Ready to help" caught our attention as we wanted to know how does "help" looks like. It has led to research on UNWRA.
