United Nations, July 3 (RHC)-- A report issued by Francesca Albanese, an Italian lawyer and UN Special Rapporteur on the occupied Palestinian territories, names 48 corporate actors -- including U.S. tech giants Microsoft, Alphabet Inc, Google’s parent company and Amazon -- that are complicit in Israel's genocide.

A database of more than 1,000 corporate entities was also put together as part of the investigation.

“[Israel’s] forever-occupation has become the ideal testing ground for arms manufacturers and Big Tech – providing significant supply and demand, little oversight, and zero accountability – while investors and private and public institutions profit freely,” the report said.

“Companies are no longer merely implicated in occupation – they may be embedded in an economy of genocide,” it said, in a reference to Israel’s ongoing assault on the Gaza Strip.

The report stated that its findings illustrate why Israel’s “genocide” continues – “Because it is lucrative for many.”
