IDF soldier who participated in the mistaken killing of three Israeli hostages in Gaza City in Dec 2023 confirmed to his mother what was widely reported at the time: they killed the men, who were waving white flags, because their unit was under orders to kill all Gazan men they encountered.

For 66 days the Netanyahu government has blocked ALL food and aid from going into Gaza. Now we're told it plans to seize and reoccupy huge parts of Gaza, as it pushes for Trump's plan to force 2 million Palestinians to leave. That would be ethnic cleansing by another name. We can’t stand for it.
