About the Project

Gaza Crisis Documentation is a structured web-based platform that documents war crimes, starvation tactics, and major humanitarian incidents in Gaza. The project combines interactive data visualization, legal context, and verified evidence to ensure accountability and awareness. War Crimes Statistics: Provides a comprehensive record of international humanitarian law violations, including civilian casualties, attacks on protected sites, and crimes against vulnerable groups. Includes four views—Overview, Violations, Legal Framework, and Resources—with detailed statistics (e.g., children killed, hospitals attacked, journalists targeted). Hunger Crisis Statistics: Documents the use of starvation as a weapon of war, covering malnutrition, economic warfare, aid prevention, and destruction of food systems. Includes four views mirroring the war crimes pages, with data on child starvation, maternal malnutrition, food shortages, and blocked aid. Major Incidents Timeline: An interactive, CSV-powered timeline, map, and list of key crisis events. Features advanced filtering, real-time stats, and detailed incident modals with evidence, casualties, and sources. Supporting Data & Templates: All pages share unified styling, modular templates, and CSV/JSON data files with accompanying images and metadata for consistency and scalability. This system serves as both a documentation hub and an advocacy tool, combining verified statistics, international legal frameworks, and evidence resources to support humanitarian response and accountability.
