This research deals with a comparative study of the genocide and mass killing of civilians by Jews in the two incidents of Akhdud and Gaza. The main goal of this research is to analyze how these crimes occurred and to identify the similarities and differences between these two events. Therefore, the main question is how did the genocide and mass killing of civilians by Jews occur in the incidents of Akhdud and Gaza and what are the similarities and differences between the two? To answer this question, the descriptive-analytical research method was used and data was extracted from historical, interpretive and contemporary sources. The research findings show that in many cases, Jews acted not as victims, but as the main perpetrators of genocide. In the incident of Akhdud, the Jewish leaders, aiming to destroy the Christian community of Najran, burned thousands of Christian believers in fire because of their faith. The Holy Quran refers to this incident in Surah Al-Buruj and considers it an example of oppression and tyranny against believers. In the Gaza events, the Zionist regime has used military power and the support of the hegemonic powers to destroy Palestinian society. These actions include economic blockade, airstrikes, destruction of infrastructure, and the killing of civilians, which is known as gradual genocide. This research shows that the Jewish claim of being victims of genocide is nothing more than a claim, and history provides numerous evidence of their crimes against other communities. Both the Ahdud and Gaza events have left deep and lasting impacts on the culture and identity of the victim communities.
