Amnesty International UK and a London university have released a digital mapping project that purportedly records the "deadly pattern of Israeli attacks" on Gaza during the 50-day-war last summer.

Released this week to mark the one-year anniversary of Operation Protective Edge, the online Gaza Project includes satellite images, testimony, photos and videos.

Activists behind the project have claimed that the project proves Israel's alleged breaches of international humanitarian law through a pattern of targeting civilian homes in Gaza.

The project was produced by Amnesty working with the Forensic Architecture research project at Goldsmiths, University of London.
