Former Israel PM says planned ‘humanitarian city’ in Gaza would be a ‘concentration camp’ | BBC News
The former Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert, has warned that the planned ‘humanitarian city’ in Gaza ordered by Defense Minister Israel Katz, would be a ‘concentration camp’.
Last week, Katz told journalists he wanted to establish a “humanitarian city” on the ruins of the city of Rafah to initially house about 600,000 Palestinians – and eventually the whole 2.1 million population.
In a video message released last night, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu rejected growing calls from people in Israel to end the war in Gaza.
This has been widely criticised, with one Israeli human rights lawyer condemned it as nothing less than an “operational plan for a crime against humanity”.
The Gaza Health Ministry (GHM) has said the death toll in Gaza is now past 58k, as Isreal continues to strike Gaza.
The GHM said it recorded a 139 deaths on Sunday, among them a group of children who were waiting for water in central Gaza.
The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) said it was aware of the “claim regarding casualties in the area as a result”, adding that it works to mitigate civilian harm “as much as possible” and “regrets any harm to uninvolved civilians”.

He described a series of intercept capabilities named after Smurfs – the little blue imps of Belgian cartoon fame. The UK government declined to comment on “intelligence matters”.

A new species of “killer fungus” has been discovered that destroys an invasive plant in the UK, raising hopes that native habitats could be restored.
The scientist who found the moss dieback fungus and is tracking its spread across the UK took the BBC’s Georgina Rannard to South Wales to see the fungus.
It leaves “fairy rings of death” on the heath-star moss which arrived on British soil in the 1940s and swiftly pushed out other plants, damaging heathlands, sand dunes and other habitats across Britain.
