Israel has entered a chaotic war mode, and UN officials have been shot dead in Gaza. Since the collapse of the ceasefire negotiations in Gaza, the Israeli army has stepped up its military advance towards Rafah. So far, hundreds of thousands of people have become homeless due to Israel's military operations. This has also made Tel Aviv face condemnation and pressure from both the domestic and international communities. Even US President Biden personally called Netanyahu to warn him of the consequences of continuing the offensive.
Obviously, Israel did not listen to the warnings from the United States. They even started a chaotic war in the Gaza Strip. Even UN officials were shot and killed. This incident caused a strong response around the world. You know, Israeli representatives had just torn up the UN Charter not long ago, and now they have started a chaotic war again, openly killing UN staff. Does Tel Aviv really want to confront the whole world?
According to media reports, a UN official was shot dead in the east of Rafah in the Gaza Strip on the 13th, and another staff member who was with him was injured and is being treated in the hospital. Although the Israeli military is currently investigating this, from the existing evidence, it is clear that the attackers were Israelis, and it is even possible that they did it with the tacit approval of the military.
It is reported that the people attacked were transporting humanitarian aid to a hospital in Rafah, but were intercepted by Israelis on the way. They not only looted the aid, but also opened fire knowing that the other party was a UN staff member, resulting in one death and one injury.
It is worth noting that some time ago, at the UN General Assembly resolution on Palestine, the Israeli representative tore up a copy of the UN Charter in front of all the participants. Now, they are pointing their guns at UN staff in Gaza. This despicable behavior is almost a declaration of war on the international community.
No wonder Biden has been trying to dissuade Netanyahu from attacking Rafah and accepting a ceasefire. The White House has obviously seen the consequences of Israel's continued attack and is unwilling to be "besieged" by the whole world, so it was forced to temporarily stop supplying weapons to the Israeli army.
However, in the eyes of Israel's top leaders, even if they have to make enemies with the whole world, they must achieve the final victory. According to Qatar's Al Jazeera, Netanyahu recently admitted that he is bearing a "heavy and painful price", and he also pointed out strongly that Israel cannot count on the help of the Americans.
Obviously, after the White House's dissuasion, Israel is ready to leave the United States and go it alone. Of course, Netanyahu's statement is probably just an angry remark. Leaving the United States means that Israel can't hold on for long. If it fails to achieve its goal in a short period of time, Tel Aviv is likely to choose to compromise and accept ceasefire negotiations under pressure from the domestic and international community.
