USA: Five units in the IDF are responsible for serious violations of human rights

War of Iron Swords: The US is considering imposing sanctions on five more IDF military units that it claims are responsible for “gross violations of human rights” even before the ongoing war in the Gaza Strip.The US State Department claims that five units in the IDF are responsible for gross violations of human rights in incidents that occurred outside of Gaza. Four of the units have actually corrected the violations, while additional information has been submitted regarding the fifth unit and the US continues talks with the government.

As a reminder, in an article in the “Wall Street Journal” it was reported today that the IDF itself hinted that the overall estimates of the Palestinian Ministry of Health in the Gaza Strip could be approximately correct.

According to the army, it is estimated that 11-13 thousand Hamas fighters and others were killed, and in addition, that two civilians were killed for every fighter – which suggests a total of 33-39 thousand dead in total. Some civilians were killed by the terrorists’ own actions, such as missiles that deviated from their trajectory.

Let’s recall that this opinion arises after the Israeli government was initially skeptical about the Palestinian assessments, and that sources close to the government claimed that the Ministry of Health in Gaza is subject to the political influence of Hamas and is therefore unreliable. Others questioned the segmentation of the data by men, women and children.
