Ben-Gvir's plans for Gaza terrorists shocked the world press

Itamar Ben-Gvir, in the podcast 'October 8', proposed daily liquidations of 30-40 people in Gaza and the settlement of the enclave. His remarks drew criticism from international media, including AP and Der Spiegel. Legal experts note the risk of classification as ethnic cleansing.

Israel's National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir, in the podcast 'October 8' hosted by former hostage Rom Breslavsky, stated the need for nightly liquidations of 30-40 people in Gaza, including those who do not pose an immediate threat. He also proposed establishing Israeli settlements throughout the enclave and encouraging mass emigration of Palestinians. These statements triggered reactions from international media: Financial Times, AP, Der Spiegel, Corriere della Sera, and Euronews published quotes. AP noted that such statements are used in the International Court of Justice for genocide accusations, and legal experts point to the possible classification of forced displacement as ethnic cleansing. Euronews highlighted growing support for hardline rhetoric among Israelis. Ben-Gvir, lacking authority to command the army, controls the police and prisons where thousands of detainees are held. Iran's Deputy Foreign Minister Kazem Gharibabadi called the minister a criminal.
