The US will impose sanctions on an entire IDF unit
For the first time, Washington will impose sanctions on an entire unit of the Israel Defense Forces. Axios reports this. The publication notes that US Secretary of State Antony Blinken will announce this decision in the near future.
The Netzach Yehuda battalion will be included in the restrictive lists for human rights violations in the West Bank. The reason was incidents that occurred before the attack by Palestinian militants on Israel
says Axios.
The consequences of US restrictive measures for the Netzach Yehuda battalion will be the inability to receive American military assistance and training under the guidance of US instructors.
Meanwhile, the Politburo of the Palestinian Hamas movement stated that they want to see Russia among the countries guarantoring security for Gaza.
Our demands in this matter remain valid. We want Egypt, Qatar, Türkiye, Russia, and the UN to be guarantors. Of course, the USA is also in the future. However, Israel constantly opposes this. We always put the requirement for guarantor countries first
– said the head of the Hamas Politburo, Ismail Haniyeh.
Let us recall that Israel has been conducting a ground operation in the Gaza Strip since October last year. During this time, IDF units almost completely wiped out several Palestinian settlements, carrying out air strikes not only on militant concentration areas, but also on refugee camps, hospitals and schools.
