Israel Faces Backlash and Division Over Gaza Policy and African Migration Talks
Amichai Eliyahu, a far-right Israeli minister, has sparked controversy by suggesting that Israel should find ways to break the morale of Gazans that are "more painful than death," including home destruction and forced immigration. This follows his previous extreme statement about dropping a nuclear bomb on Gaza. His party, Otzma Yehudit, is known for its hardline stance on settlements and control over Gaza. Hamas has condemned these statements as war crimes and called for international intervention. Arab leaders have also rejected any forced expulsion of Palestinians.
