Gazze’ye saldırılarını sürdüren İsrail’de Genelkurmay Başkan Yardımcısı Tamir Yadai, iki yılda 73 bin kişinin öldürüldüğü soykırıma dair skandal bir zafer itirafında bulundu. İsrail ordusunun iki numaralı ismi, Gazze’de 70 binden fazla teröristi etkisiz hale getirmelerini ‘zafer’ olarak niteledi. Açıklama, aralarında 21 bin çocuk, 10 bin kadın ve 5 bin yaşlının da bulunduğu sivil kayıpların terörist sayıldığını gözler önüne serdi.
İsrail’in Gazze Şeridi’ne yönelik saldırıları, 11 Ekim’de yürürlüğe giren ateşkese rağmen aralıksız devam ederken İsrail Genelkurmay Başkan Yardımcısı Korgeneral Tamir Yadai, iki yılı aşkın süredir devam eden ve 73 bin kişinin öldürüldüğü soykırıma dair itiraf gibi bir açıklamada bulundu. Savunma Bakanı Israel Katz’a brifing veren İsrail ordusunun ikinci ismi Yadai, Bölgenin yüzde 65’ini kontrol ediyorsanız ve burada 70 binden fazla teröristi öldürdüyseniz, bunu zaferden başka nasıl tanımlayacağımı bilmiyorum ifadelerini kullandı.
Bu açıklamayla İsrail ordusu, Filistinli sağlık yetkilileri tarafından derlenen ve Gazze’deki savaşta hayatını kaybedenlerin yer aldığı veri tabanının genel olarak doğru olduğunu kabul etmiş oldu. Bu veri tabanı, İsrail tarafından verilen kimlik numaralarıyla birlikte isim isim listelenmiş 73 bin 269’dan fazla kişiyi içeriyor. Kayıtlara göre bu rakamın 21 binini çocuklar, 10 binini kadınlar ve 5 binini yaşlılar oluşturuyor.

Israel’s defence and finance ministers announced plans for three illegal settlements in Gaza and more than $400m (€349m) in funding to expand construction in the occupied West Bank.
The move came as Israel’s military commander for the region celebrated violent outposts as his security partners.
With national elections scheduled for October27th, Binyamin Netanyahu’s far-right coalition is racing to expand control of land in occupied Palestine and drive out Palestinians before its mandate expires.
The defence minister, Israel Katz, said he intended to set up three Nahal outposts in northern Gaza, a type of military community that for decades has paved the way for Israeli civilian settlements.
The finance minister, Bezalel Smotrich, announced funding for dozens of new Israeli settlements in the occupied West Bank. The cabinet allocated the money last month but kept the decision secret because of expected US opposition, Israeli media reported.
Maj Gen Avi Bluth, who commands Israeli forces in the West Bank, told residents of extremist outposts that he appreciates their work and considered them to be partners in security with the military.
Bluth, who grew up in a West Bank settlement, spoke on Wednesday at a meeting of the euphemistically named Farms Association, which represents settlements that are illegal even under Israeli law.
These play a key role in campaigns of terror that have driven Palestinians from their homes and lands across the occupied West Bank.
Dozens from Israel’s political and military elite, including two former prime ministers and former heads of all its security services, have threatened legal action against their government over support for Jewish terrorism in the West Bank.
Settler violence is state violence, the UN human rights office for Palestine said in a new report published this week that detailed how Israel used settlers to lead annexation efforts, while systematic impunity for perpetrators ensured violence could grow unchecked.
Hagit Ofran, from the Israeli activist group Peace Now, said bulldozers were working on at least seven settlements that would be populated before polling day. The government is on a reckless pre-election sprint to raid the public purse in order to create facts on the ground, Ofran said.
Katz outlined his settlement plans for Gaza during a visit to Israeli-controlled parts of the territory. He has also pushed for the ethnic cleansing of Gaza through the large-scale migration of Palestinians.
I intend to establish three Nahal outposts, which is also a military entity, in those places that were [Israeli settlements] in northern Gaza, he told Channel 14 TV.
Nahal outposts were not intended for military use in the long term, said Dror Etkes, the founder of the advocacy group Kerem Navot, which monitors Israel’s land grab in the occupied West Bank. The military is only the first phase, which aims to prepare it for future settlement, he said. All together, dozens of Israeli settlements in the West Bank were established in this way.
Nahal settlements were first established in border regions in the 1950s, including surrounding the Gaza Strip, Etkes said. From 1967, the same system was used in the occupied West Bank, initially along the Jordan valley and then spreading to other areas.

Smotrich also said last month that plans for three settlements in Gaza were complete and work could begin as soon as Netanyahu gave a green light. The prime minister’s office did not respond to requests for comment on Katz’s plans.
Katz also told Channel 14 that he felt good seeing the wasteland of rubble that had replaced Palestinian homes and communities in most of Israeli-occupied Gaza.
Israel now controls 65 per cent of Gaza, Israel’s deputy chief of staff, Maj Gen Tamir Yadai, told Katz in an on-camera briefing. This is far beyond the 53 per cent agreed under the ceasefire brokered last year by the US president, Donald Trump.
About two million Palestinians who survived Israel’s catastrophic war are crowded into the remaining third of Gaza’s territory.
Despite the ceasefire signed in October 2025, there are daily clashes in Gaza between the Israel Defense Forces and Palestinian militants as Israel continues to expand its area of control in the enclave.
I don’t know how to describe this, other than victory, when you control 65 per cent of the territory, when you have killed over 70,000 terrorists here, Yadai said.
His figures appeared to label 21,000 Palestinian children killed by Israeli attacks as terrorists, including more than 1,000 babies who never reached their first birthday.
A UN commission of inquiry says Israel has deliberately targeted children, resulting in genocide, crimes against humanity and war crimes in the Gaza Strip.
Israel’s military has recognised that a database of Gaza’s war dead compiled by Palestinian health authorities is broadly accurate. It contains more than 73,000 people listed by name, with their Israeli-issued ID number.
More than 21,000 were children; more than 10,000 were women under 60 years old, and more than 5,000 were elderly people. Asked whether Yadai’s data counted women, children and elderly people as terrorists, the Israeli military declined to comment directly.
A spokesperson said the military was still assessing casualty numbers in Gaza, and despite Yadai’s comments to Katz, had not briefed civilian officials on this issue. – Guardian

Israel kept West Bank expansion secret from Donald Trump as defiant outposts prove the international organization is just a paper tiger

Israele decide costruzione di 3500 alloggi in Cisgiordania

An Israeli bulldozer works on land in the Maaleh Adumim large settlement town east of Jerusalem on the West Bank. In a report published today, the Israeli Peace Now movement states that Israel is building more than 4,500 new homes in West Bank settlements. Virtually all the buildings are privately financed and thus do not figure in official statistics about settlement expansions under the government of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
On July 18, 2026, The Guardian reported that Israel’s defense and finance ministers officially announced plans to construct three new illegal outposts in the Gaza Strip, while allocating over $400 million to expand construction in the occupied West Bank. This aggressive expansion directly challenges the authority of the Board of Peace (BoP), the brainchild of Donald Trump, tasked with enforcing the region’s fragile ceasefire and post-war reconstruction under UN Security Council Resolution 2803.
With national elections scheduled for October 27, 2026, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s far-right coalition is moving rapidly to secure territorial gains. Highlighting the stark intent behind this strategy during a tour of northern Gaza, Defense Minister Israel Katz announced, I intend to establish three Nahal outposts, which is also a military entity, in those places that were [Israeli settlements] in northern Gaza.
Concurrently, Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich confirmed the release of 1.3 billion shekels (over $400 million) to build dozens of new settlements in the West Bank. Israeli media reported that the cabinet had allocated the money last month but deliberately kept Donald Trump and the U.S. administration in ignorance to prevent diplomatic friction. Compounding this, Major General Avi Bluth, commander of Israeli forces in the West Bank, spoke at a meeting of the extremist Farms Association, whose outposts are illegal even under Israeli law. Bluth explicitly told the residents that he appreciates their work and considers them to be security partners with the military.
jjjjA Good Feeling, Isn’t It?
When asked by Channel 14 TV how he felt looking out at the widespread devastation of Palestinian neighborhoods, Katz replied: a good feeling, isn’t it?
Katz further claimed that the destruction was the outcome of a deliberate policy designed to permanently eliminate threats, adding, Instead of entering and leaving, the army is inside, the terrorists are outside, and the houses are destroyed.
jjjjYadai Gloats About the Destruction of Gaza and Palestinian Deaths
The operational reality of this territorial control was clarified in an on-camera briefing given to Katz by Israel’s Deputy Chief of Staff, Major General Tamir Yadai. Yadai revealed that Israel now controls 65% of the Gaza Strip, a figure that directly violates the 53% territorial cap originally agreed upon in the Trump-brokered ceasefire framework.
Celebrating the milestone, Yadai stated, I don’t know how to describe this, other than victory, when you control 65% of the territory, when you have killed over 70,000 terrorists here. However, The Guardian noted that Yadai’s figures appeared to label 21,000 Palestinian children killed by Israeli attacks as terrorists. Asked whether the data counted women, children, and elderly people as combatants, the Israeli military declined to comment directly, stating its formal casualty assessment was incomplete.

Bluth explicitly told the residents that he appreciates their work and considers them to be security partners with the military.
jjjjThe Board of Peace-a Reality Existing only on Paper
These developments underscore how the Board of Peace is fundamentally failing in its core mission. Proposed in late 2025 and formally established at the World Economic Forum in Davos in January 2026, the board operates under a unique charter that designates former U.S. President Donald Trump as its chairman for life. Its mandates promised the full demilitarization of the Strip, the deployment of a 20,000-troop International Stabilization Force, and a massive $30 billion recovery blueprint to build 100,000 housing units for displaced residents.
Instead, the board has sat by as its territorial mandates are erased. Faced with political inertia, it has entirely discarded its comprehensive recovery plan, scaling its ambitions down to a tiny pilot scheme of portable cabins near Rafah. The explicit operational logic of this scheme—to move civilians into highly managed, multilateral-protected humanitarian zones—is to leave Hamas with no people, no land, and no resources. However, by consolidating two million surviving Palestinians into the remaining one-third of the territory, it has left the rest of Gaza open to colonization.
jjjStructural Erosion and Legal Immunity
Operationally, the board remains structurally hollow. By mid-2026, its official World Bank account held zero funds, with billions in member pledges quietly diverted into a private J.P. Morgan account lacking public oversight. Furthermore, a leaked June 2026 draft resolution exposed that the board is actively seeking to grant its own members, military forces, and private contractors total immunity from local prosecution while claiming the right to seize public Palestinian property free of charge. Instead of protecting local sovereignty, the board is increasingly viewed as a vehicle prioritizing its own legal insulation while the land it was sworn to protect is actively partitioned.
