CNN —A highly decorated former Israeli defense minister has caused a firestorm by accusing Israel of carrying out ethnic cleansing of Palestinians in northern Gaza. The interviewer expressed surprise at Ya’alon’s use of the phrase “ethnic cleansing,” asking, “Is that what you think – that we’re on the way there?”“Why ‘on the way?’” he responded. The Israeli military has for two months been carrying out an intense and deadly operation in northern Gaza, targeting what it says are resurgent Hamas militants. Vanishingly few aid deliveries have been allowed into northern Gaza, according to the World Food Programme. “Under this title, ethnic cleansing is effectively being carried out; I don’t have another word for it.”The interviewer said that such a phrase evoked “dark periods” in history.

[1/3] People gather to protest Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's visit to California as he is scheduled to meet with entrepreneur Elon Musk, at union square in San Francisco, California, U.S. September 18, 2023. An Israeli source confirmed the visit by Musk, a billionaire who also runs Tesla (TSLA.O) and SpaceX. Musk's visit coincides with a four-day truce in an Israeli war with Palestinian Hamas militants in Gaza. During that visit, before the war, about 200 people protested efforts by Netanyahu's right-wing government to curb the powers of Israeli courts. Antisemitism and Islamophobia have risen in the United States and worldwide, including during the now seven-week-old war between Israel and Hamas.
