Israeli soldiers describe shoot-on-sight orders in Gaza; 70,000+ killed
Der SpiegelHI·IL · PS·about 18 hours ago
Four Israeli military intelligence soldiers allege that expanded targeting rules permitted strikes on inhabited buildings in Gaza without evacuation, leading to large civilian casualties. The claims, reported by Anadolu Agency, are unverified and likely to fuel international scrutiny of Israel's conduct. This marks a potential escalation in the documented pattern of civilian harm, though the source is a single outlet and the soldiers' accounts are not independently corroborated.
