Die Menschenrechtsorganisation #breaking_the_silence aus #Israel hat über das vergangene Jahr Zeugenaussagen von Soldaten gesammelt, die in #Gaza im Einsatz sind, nun wollen sie nach und nach veröffentlichen.

Den Anfang macht ein Captain, der 2024 in Nordgaza im Einsatz war - insbesondere in der #KillZone #netzarim

»The meaning of a “no go zone". What’s important to you that the Israeli public know about the Netzarim Corridor? « https://www.breakingthesilence.org.il/testimonies/database/897146

Breaking the Silence › Testimony › The meaning of a “no go zone"

I would like there to be an understanding of the meaning of this thing: tons of civilians are killed because they were simply in the wrong place and the numbers don’t reflect that reality.

»It’s important []people understand the meaning of a “no go zone” what it means when you blockade an area as a closed military zone & that anyone who enters it is sentenced to death.«

»It’s possible that we killed Hamas & it’s possible that there were people who entered tried to set explosives against us [I would like there to be] an understanding of the meaning of this thing: tons of civilians are killed [because] they [were] simply in the wrong place & the numbers don’t reflect that reality.«

Ein Ende 2023 in Nord-#Gaza eingesetzter israelischer First Sergeant äußerte sich gegenüber #breaking_the_silence:

Die israalische Armee geht davon aus, dass alle Bewohner Nord-Gaza verlassen haben - wer noch da ist, gelte als Feind wird erschossen.

>>Were the open-fire regulations different [inside the Gaza Strip] versus inside the base or on the border fence?

Yes, inside Gaza [the open-fire regulations] it's like a free for all. <<

Breaking the Silence › Testimony › You identify, you shoot

Inside Gaza the open-fire regulations it’s like a free for all. Movement that is not from the very noticeable direction of our troops, is like a surefire enemy, no one is supposed to get near us and no one is supposed to be here.
