The United Nations says about 1.9 million people, or 90% of Gaza's population, have fled their homes over the last year.
A report by Human Rights Watch says Israel has committed war crimes and crimes against humanity by deliberately causing the mass displacement of Palestinians in Gaza.
According to the United Nations about 1.9 million people, or 90% of Gaza's population, have fled their homes over the last year, and 79% of the territory is under Israeli-issued evacuation orders.
HRW's report says this amounts to "forcible transfer" and that evidence shows it has been systematic and part of a state policy.
It also says Israeli actions appear to "meet the definition of ethnic cleansing".
Israel has said the report is "completely false and detached from reality".
