Nothing to see here, just the "general" himself of “the general’s plan" fame admitting that Gaza has been a – his words – “concentration camp" for twenty years.

Trump's idea of transferring Gazans to Egypt/Jordan has been an Israeli fantasy for decades This is a leaked US cable from 2004 where Israel's Nation Security Council Chief, Giora Eiland, admits that Gaza is a "huge concentration camp" & calls for grabbing 600km from Sinai

#Palestine / Gaza's North: Mass demolitions, displacement, and fortifications expose Israel's military strategy (implementation of the so called “Generals' Plan”)

#WAPO is reporting that Israel's military offensive in northern Gaza has resulted in the mass demolition of homes and the construction of military fortifications in formerly residential areas. Over 100,000 Palestinians have been displaced, with 30,000 to 50,000 remaining in the area, facing potential famine due to restricted aid access. Satellite imagery reveals the destruction of almost half of #Jabalya refugee camp, creating a military corridor stretching from the sea to the Israeli border.

Residents describe widespread targeting of civilians, forced evacuations with family separations, and abuse during screenings. The actions are compared to previous #IDF strategies of creating militarized buffer zones, raising concerns about long-term Israeli control of northern #Gaza.

The IDF claims to target only military objectives and cites the need to prevent Palestinians from being used as human shields, while former Israeli officials have accused the IDF of ethnic cleansing.

Israeli Scholar: It's Worse Than 'Generals' Plan' in Gaza

"It is impossible for me to leave my house because I do not want to die out there. There are many people who lost their lives away from their homes, even in the south. Death is everywhere. There is a lot of shooting and all kinds of bombing. Gatherings are being bombed, shelters are being bombed, and schools are being bombed. The area is overcrowded, so that even a small bomb kills and injures a lot of people.”

‘Death is everywhere’: fears grow that Israel plans to seize land in Gaza

Increasingly violent siege of north raises suspicions about Netanyahu’s war aims

The Guardian

#Palestine / If It Looks Like Ethnic Cleansing, It Probably Is

Israel is carrying out war crimes and crimes against humanity. Large-scale civilian casualties, collapse of vital infrastructure and institutions, and denial of humanitarian aid in northern Gaza are creating a humanitarian crisis amounting to "starving the hundreds of thousands of people who live there. #Haaretz’s editorial calls it what it is. A grave suspicion that Israel is perpetrating ethnic cleansing by killing, starving and expelling Palestinians from northern Gaza.

[…] Ethnic cleansing is both a moral crime and a legal one. Criminal law treats mass expulsions as both a war crime and a crime against humanity. Horrifyingly, some members of Netanyahu's government want to commit these crimes.

"It doesn’t matter if Israel says it is doing this or not, if it calls it by a different name or not. What matters in international law is what is happening on the ground, and we can clearly see Israel is trying to erase the Palestinian presence in north Gaza.”

‘Israel is trying to erase our presence’: Palestinians say ‘generals’ plan’ to clear north Gaza is under way

Many believe new offensive, along with tightening of siege, is following blueprint for removing remaining population

The Guardian

[followup]

According to Israeli TV station N12 the U.S. has threatened to impose an arms embargo on #Israel if it does not resolve the humanitarian crisis in Gaza within the next month. The White House has expressed deep concern over the deterioration of the humanitarian situation in Gaza in recent weeks and has called for urgent steps to reverse this trend.

Other media sources are speculating whether #IDF had in fact activated the perfectly Nazi sounding “Eiland procedure” (or so called “General's Plan”) in the north of Gaza Strip, according to which, the IDF will give all civilians in northern Gaza one week to evacuate the area. After that, any remaining civilians would be considered combatants and targeted for death by the military. The plan would also block all food, water, fuel, and medical supplies from entering northern Gaza.

Eiland has stated that under this plan, Hamas would "either have to surrender or to starve," and that "it will not be necessary" for the Israeli military to kill everyone in northern Gaza as "people will not be able to live there. The water will dry up."

Netanyahu considering plan to force all Palestinian civilians out of northern Gaza to besiege Hamas

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is considering a plan to force all Palestinian civilians out of northern Gaza, including Gaza City, in order to lay siege to Hamas and force the release of hostages.

CNN

While the media are focusing on the war in Lebanon, let's not take our eye off Gaza.

According to this article, it seems plausible that Israel is now trying to deliberately starve about 400,000 Palestinians.

Which would obviously be yet another war crime.

Israeli attack on northern Gaza hints at retired general's "surrender or starve" plan for war

Giora Eiland tells Jeremy Bowen that Israel should tell Palestinians to leave northern Gaza before sealing it off as a way of pressuring Hamas.

BBC News

Netanyahu mulls plan to empty northern Gaza of civilians and cut off aid to those left inside.

"Those who remain would be considered combatants — meaning military regulations would allow troops to kill them — and denied food, water, medicine and fuel, according to a copy of the plan given to the Associated Press by its chief architect."

"One official with knowledge of the matter said parts of the plan are already being implemented."

Netanyahu mulls plan to empty northern Gaza of civilians and cut aid to those left

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is examining a plan to seal off humanitarian aid to northern Gaza in an attempt to starve out Hamas militants. If implemented, the plan could trap without food or water hundreds of thousands of Palestinians unwilling or unable to leave their homes. Israel has issued many evacuation orders for the north throughout the yearlong war. The plan proposed to Netanyahu by a group of retired generals would escalate the pressure, giving Palestinians a week to leave the northern third of the Gaza Strip. Those who remain would be denied food, water, medicine and fuel. The chief architect of the plan says it is the only way to break Hamas in the north and pressure it to release Israeli hostages.
