According to Euro-Med Monitor, the Israeli army has targeted academic, scientific, and intellectual figures in the Strip in deliberate and specific air raids on their homes without prior notice.

Obligatory reminder that when nazi Germany did this in occupied Poland, this in itself was called in terms which were later codified as genocide.
