Provokative Äußerungen: Israels Polizeiminister fordert mehr Tötungen in Gaza

Während Trumps Schwiegersohn um Vermittlung ringt, verschärft Israels Polizeiminister den Ton. Er spricht sich für ein noch härteres Vorgehen im Gazastreifen aus, nicht nur bei unmittelbarer Gefahr.

Provokative Äußerungen: Israels Polizeiminister fordert mehr Tötungen in Gaza

Israeli far-right Police Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir has called for increased killings of Palestinians in Gaza before talks on the post-war situation in the coastal strip. Ben-Gvir, who has had ideological differences with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, told a podcast that he believed targeted killings should be carried out in Gaza, removing 30 to 40 people each night.

He was referring not only to militant Palestinians posing an immediate threat but also to others who he claimed did not deserve to live in the territory. An Iranian deputy foreign minister, Kasem Gharibabadi, condemned Ben-Gvir's remarks on the X platform, writing that his Zionist criminal had spoken of Palestinian displacement and settlement building in Gaza.

These admissions must be recorded and kept for the day of reckoning and a trial against such criminals. US mediator Jared Kushner held talks in Israel on Sunday with Egyptian President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi and representatives of the Islamist terrorist group Hamas. Today, he planned to meet with Netanyahu in Israel, along with former British Prime Minister Tony Blair and the High Representative of the Peace Council, Nikolaj Mladenow.
