In a video of social media, the soldiers of the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) were seen blowing up a building in Gaza as part of a so -called ‘gender review party’ to indicate the birth of a boy, which releases a blue smoke plum.“it’s a boy!” The soldiers shout, then laughter in the form of smoke from the structure destroyed laughter.
This incident comes at the time of increased military growth in Gaza. On Monday, May 5, the Israel’s cabinet led by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu approved a controversial new military roadmap to capture the entire Gaza Strip and to control the area indefinitely, according to a report by the Associated Press citing two Israeli officials.
Officials indicated that this expansion of operations could provoke serious international backlash, especially the mobilization of tens of thousands of reserve soldiers. The move is necessarily implicated by Israel to achieve the objectives of its war – in particular, the elimination of Hamas and the rescue of the hostages are held in Gaza.
The scheme also includes the transfer of hundreds of thousands of Palestinians of Southern Gaza, which allegedly raises concerns about forced displacement and already strict human crisis.
A separate defense source told AP that the scheme is unlikely to be implemented by US President Donald Trump earlier this month before a expected visit in the Middle East, which suggests a possible temporary ceasefire.
Since the collapse of a ceasefire with Hamas in mid -March, Israel has intensified its military operations, which led to heavy attacks in the enclave, resulting in hundreds of casualties. The Israeli forces currently control about 50% of the Gaza Strip. Before re -starting enmity, Israel had already suspended the distribution of human aid, including food, fuel, and deteriorating water, which many observers say the most important human emergency in the 19 -month long struggle.
