"We don’t kill journalists and we don't jail them either. And we certainly don't execute them." In an interview with The Economist, ICC‑wanted Netanyahu claimed that the Israeli occupation forces did not target journalists in Gaza, even as more than 200 journalists were killed after the genocidal war began and international media were entirely barred from independently entering the strip. He argued that access was restricted simply because “it’s a warzone.”

The IDF has reopened an evacuation route for Gazan civilians to move south for their safety. The IDF has repeatedly called on the residents of Gaza City to evacuate from the area, and continues to urge them to do so. We are not at war with the people of Gaza.

70,000 dead? After Haaretz claimed the IDF had acknowledged Hamas' figure for Gaza casualties and much of the world media repeated it, IDF International Spokesman LTC Nadav Shoshani explicitly told me yesterday in Gaza that the IDF does not recognise that figure: "That is not an official IDF tally or an official IDF statement, The IDF is still evaluating the number of terrorists that we have eliminated and, if we can, the number of casualties in Gaza."

We are at war with Hamas, not with the people of Gaza. While Hamas intentionally places civilians in harm’s way, we will continue to do everything in our power to protect the lives of innocents. #FreeGazaFromHamas

LISTEN to an IDF officer in Unit 504 encourage a resident of Gaza to evacuate southward for their safety. Hamas continues to use the civilians of Gaza as human shields, not allowing them to evacuate.

⭕️ WATCH: Hamas terrorists fired live rounds from within the Shifa Hospital in Gaza City. By using an active hospital as a terror launch post, Hamas endangers patients, medical staff and civilians, proving once again its systematic exploitation of civilian infrastructure. The IDF will continue to operate against terrorist activity while adhering to international law and working to protect civilians.

Piers Morgan keeps asking the same question in every interview: “Why is Israel intentionally killing civilians?” The answer is always the same. Israel is not targeting civilians. But Piers Morgan does not accept that. He cites the Hamas-run “Palestinian Ministry of Health” or “UK doctors operating in Gaza” as if British surgeons in a war zone can somehow tell whether a bullet came from Hamas or the IDF. When a guest says they do not trust Hamas’ numbers, Piers quickly shifts to his next question: “Then why won’t Israel let journalists into Gaza?” Here is the truth. Israel actually does allow journalists into Gaza, but not freely. They must coordinate, be escorted, and follow safety protocols. Piers then compares this to journalists visiting Israeli communities after October 7. That is a completely different situation. There were no ongoing combat operations, no terrorists hiding nearby, and no risk to Israeli troops or reporters. Then Piers says, “Let the journalists decide for themselves.” That might sound good on air, but it ignores reality. Here is why journalists cannot enter Gaza freely. The risks are real, and the cost far outweighs the benefit. 1. Gaza is an active combat zone No army on Earth allows reporters to wander freely in the middle of live military operations. The IDF is engaged in direct fighting with terror cells. Journalists could be killed or compromise critical missions. 2. Hamas controls everything There is no such thing as a free press in Gaza. Reporters are censored, monitored, and threatened. If they film rocket launches or armed fighters, they risk being detained or expelled. Most know this and self-censor. The result is pure propaganda. 3. Hamas hides behind civilians Terrorists wear civilian clothes and operate from civilian buildings. That makes it impossible for reporters to tell who is who, and it leads to heavily distorted reporting. 4. Hostage operations are ongoing There are still hostages being held inside Gaza. Journalists moving around freely could unknowingly expose special forces missions, rescue routes, or intelligence collection. 5. Hamas is a danger to journalists There is a real risk of kidnapping, hostage-taking, or worse. If anything happens, Israel would be blamed, even if it had no control. Hamas would use it for political leverage and media attention. 6. Military secrecy is critical Letting journalists film combat zones in real time would reveal IDF positions, tunnel clearing operations, or drone movements. That puts lives at risk and hands valuable intel to the enemy. 7. Legal and diplomatic fallout If a journalist is killed in Gaza, Israel is the one the world turns on. Lawsuits, outrage, and diplomatic pressure would follow immediately, even if Hamas was responsible. 8. The double standard is obvious No one allows free press access to Russian frontlines, Chinese military zones, or US drone strike areas. But Israel is constantly criticized for following the same basic security rules. So no, Piers. Letting journalists “decide for themselves” is not a solution. This is not a panel discussion. This is war. And in war, protecting lives comes first. It comes before press access, before media narratives, and definitely before letting journalists wander into combat zones just to “verify” what they already think they know. Why would Israel take the risk of journalists unintentionally (or intentionally) exposing troop positions or feeding Hamas coordinates? The reality is, the press as you and I know, has not proven itself a friend to Israel. And beyond that, the idea of reporters roaming freely through Gaza in the middle of battle is not journalism. It is insanity.

“After we received clear intelligence of the threat posed by these terrorists, and in accordance with international humanitarian law, we took numerous steps to mitigate the risk to civilians.

An Israeli sociologist confirms the civilian death toll in Gaza is higher than all world conflicts since WW2. The IDF explicitly authorized killing up to 100 civilians for a single senior militant. This is written doctrine and a budgeted line item. Verified via IDF Database
