Israel’s Ben Gvir advocates killing ’30 to 40' people in Gaza nightly while speaking to ex-hostage
Itamar Ben-Gvir also urged mass emigration of Palestinians from Gaza, deepening divisions in Israel’s coalition as truce talks and pressure on Netanyahu continue.
- On the podcast The 8 October, Israeli National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir advocated for killing "30 to 40" people in Gaza every night, arguing strikes should target individuals beyond those posing an immediate threat.
- Ben-Gvir's remarks follow a reduction in Israeli military strikes, a shift sparking internal coalition friction after reports that the army chief of staff now controls strike approvals.
- In the same interview, Ben-Gvir proposed mass emigration of Palestinians and Gaza resettlement, claiming some residents "are not worthy of life," while facing controversy over his oversight of Israel's prison system.
- Gaza's Health Ministry reports more than 1,250 people have been killed in strikes since an October truce took effect, while Israel withdrew from the Gaza Strip 20 years ago, dismantling 21 settlements.
- Ben-Gvir's comments reveal deepening divisions within Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's government; despite his influence, he holds no authority over military strikes, which remain controlled by the army's chief of staff.
