There were no mass bombings: does the IDF listen to the USA?

Israel does not conduct massive bombings in the Gaza Strip. But, of course, during military operations certain destruction occurs.

About this Channel 24 said the editor-in-chief of the portal “Details” Emil Shleimovich, commenting on information from the media that the United States recommends that Israel conduct more precise missions to destroy Hamas leaders.

Israel does not carry out mass bombings

As Shleimovich convinces, Israel did not bomb to transform a certain neighborhood into the “scorched field”. There were targeted strikes when you need to clear a corridor or destroy a militant military facility.

If we are talking about IDF soldiers entering the “labyrinth” ” narrow streets, but nothing should be destroyed so as not to harm the civilian population? This will not happen. Because then our losses will not be in dozens, as now, but in hundreds or thousands,” said Shleimovich.

According to the Geneva Conventions, any belligerent party must warn the civilian population about the start of hostilities. The Israeli army did this, and the humanitarian corridors were under its protection.

If we are talking about targeted operations, when one person needs to be destroyed, and a person next to him should not suffer… Even international conventions and rules of war do not provide for such measures. If you destroy the leader, and next to him 3-4 more people die. This can be explained,” Shleimovich noted.

The war in Israel: briefly

• Reserve IDF General Staff Lieutenant Colonel Mark Babot said that since the beginning of the military operation in Gaza, more than 35 senior Hamas commanders have succeeded.
• On the morning of December 15, Israeli troops accidentally opened fire on hostages held by Hamas in Gaza. They died.
• Recently, the Main Intelligence Directorate and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs completed a multi-stage operation to rescue Ukrainians from Gaza. More than 300 people were saved.
