Israel’s far-right national security minister Itamar Ben-Gvir has made a controversial statement calling for nightly killings in Gaza. According to reports, Ben-Gvir has referred to certain individuals in the territory as “not worthy of life,” advocating for systematic nighttime operations targeting Palestinian civilians and fighters.
This declaration represents an escalation in rhetoric from Israeli officials and follows a pattern of increasingly harsh statements directed at the Palestinian population in Gaza. The call aligns with what observers describe as efforts to make conditions in the territory progressively more difficult for residents.
Ben-Gvir’s position as national security minister gives his statements significant weight within Israeli policy discussions. The remarks have drawn attention as part of the broader discourse surrounding the Israel-Palestine conflict and raise questions about humanitarian concerns in the region.
