Israeli ground forces are getting closer to “the complete evacuation” of northern Gaza and residents will not be allowed to return home, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) has said, in what appears to be the first official acknowledgment from Israel it is systematically removing Palestinians from the area.
In a media briefing on Tuesday night, the IDF Brig Gen Itzik Cohen told Israeli reporters that since troops had been forced to enter some areas twice, such as Jabaliya camp, “there is no intention of allowing the residents of the northern Gaza Strip to return to their homes”.
International humanitarian law experts have said that such actions would amount to the war crimes of forcible transfer and the use of food as a weapon.
dont worry, im sure theyve designated some… reservations… where they can build a casino or something
Gaza was the reservation. I’ll be very surprised if Israel doesn’t kill them all.
They won’t kill them. They’ll let them die of “natural” causes (disease+starvation).
Look maybe they’ll go the Canadian way of reeducation and integration instead. That works super well I’m told. I’m also told it definitely doesn’t count as genocide so they’ll be all clear. Great plan.
/s in case that’s not terribly obvious
