Israel’s military has drawn up plans to reconquer Gaza in a bid to finally defeat Hamas, paving the way for a long-running occupation of the besieged enclave.
According to the plan, the IDF would call up several combat divisions to reinvade and subdue Hamas, take control of wide swaths of the enclave and force the territory’s 2.2mn population into a small, so-called humanitarian zone along the Mediterranean coast.
One of the people familiar with the deliberations said Israel could take over the distribution of all humanitarian aid and had recently assessed how many calories each Palestinian would require. Another said the military was considering options including distributing aid directly, or through private contractors, to ensure Hamas could not benefit.
The UN said on Monday that it would withdraw a third of its international staff from Gaza after determining that an Israeli tank had fired a shell into a UN compound last week, killing a European aid worker and injuring five others, according to spokesman Stéphane Dujarric. The IDF has denied attacking the compound.
Imagine reacting to genocide by attacking those who oppose genocide… with old, tired jokes.
I’m reacting to genocide by pointing out those idiots who refused to vote (or to vote Harris) for the specific reason of Israel’s war crimes are idiots.
It was an assinine and ridiculous position which just happened to coincide exactly to russian propagandists (just lucky, I guess) and it resulted in the worst possible outcome for Palestine which was a guarantee they ignored.
The five seconds they got to pretend that trump brokered a cease fire are over.
