Israeli MKs call for the killing of every Palestinian in northern Gaza

A group of far-right Israeli lawmakers has called for the military to escalate its already devastating campaign in Gaza.

AhlulBayt News Agency: A group of far-right Israeli lawmakers has called for the military to escalate its already devastating campaign in Gaza.

Eight members of the Knesset’s Foreign Affairs Committee have demanded that Army Minister Israel Katz order the destruction of all water, food and power supplies in northern Gaza, a move which would result in the starvation of thousands of Palestinians.

Their proposals include treating any man, woman and child remaining in the area without a white flag as a legitimate target to be killed.

The lawmakers, including figures from the ruling Likud party and its coalition allies Religious Zionism, Jewish Power and Shas, argued in a letter that the Israeli army had failed to achieve its objectives of dismantling Hamas’s governance and military operations.

They accused the military of not carrying out the forced expulsion of Palestinians “properly” from the besieged northern Gaza, where an estimated 70,000 Palestinians remain hungry and without shelter while Israel continues its onslaught.

The lawmakers insisted that the Israeli army should impose a total blockade, destroy essential infrastructure and carry out what they described as a “complete cleansing” of the region.

They also suggested that such draconian tactics be applied across other parts of Gaza. “This must be done not only in the northern Gaza Strip, but also in every other region,” the letter said.

The MPs’ demands echo the “Generals’ Plan”, a proposal widely condemned for labelling all remaining civilians in northern Gaza as military targets while cutting off food, medicine and other supplies.

Along the same line, Israeli media sources revealed that Israel is considering a dramatic reduction in the flow of humanitarian aid to the Gaza Strip following US President Donald Trump’s entry into the White House.

“It is highly doubtful whether the amount of aid being brought into Gaza today will be similar to the amount that will come in under the Trump administration,” the sources added.

Meanwhile, humanitarian organizations have decried Israel’s tactics as collective punishment, with UN officials warning that the situation is causing unprecedented suffering for Gaza’s civilian population.
