Israeli Army – ‘Not For Me’
- CrossFireArabia
- November 20, 2024
The Israeli military has issued 1,126 arrest warrants for Israeli ultra-Orthodox settlers after they failed to show up at military service induction centers.
Due to the losses incurred in the Israeli multi-front wars on Gaza and Lebanon, the Israeli military attempted to draft ultra-Orthodox settlers to make up for the shortage.
Israeli occupation forces have been attempting to draft settlers from the ultra-Orthodox community for several months; however, the vast majority of those called up have evaded service, arguing that military service would clash with their religious beliefs and have consistently avoided call-ups, fearing ‘secularization.’
Israel Kills 21 Civilians Across Gaza

At least 21 Palestinians, including children and displaced people, were killed and several others injured, Wednesday, in a series of Israeli airstrikes targeting shelters and civilian homes across the Gaza Strip.
In the southern part of Gaza, Civil Defense reported that two Palestinians were killed and another injured when an Israeli drone targeted a gathering of civilians in the Al-Janineh neighborhood, east of Rafah.
Eight Palestinians, including four children, were also killed in Israeli shelling that struck displaced peoples’ tents in the western part of Khan Younis, according to Palestinian paramedics who spoke to Anadolu.
In central Gaza, a medical source told Anadolu that six Palestinians were killed and several others wounded in an Israeli airstrike on the Khalid Ibn Al-Walid School in the Al-Nuseirat refugee camp, which was housing displaced families. The bodies of the victims were later transferred to the Shuhada al-Aqsa Hospital in Deir al-Balah.
In Gaza City, a medical source confirmed that four Palestinians were killed and several others injured in an Israeli strike on a residential building in the Al-Rimal neighborhood, south of the city.
Additionally, one Palestinian was killed and another injured in a separate airstrike targeting a civilian gathering in the city’s central Thawra Street.
Under the rules of war, attacks on civilians and civilian facilities are prohibited.
Despite international warnings, Israel has continued its attacks on refugee shelters in the enclave, with airstrikes targeting displaced people in tents, resulting in large numbers of casualties.
This has raised concerns over the consequences of such actions, disregarding the calls from international groups for the protection of civilians.
Israel launched a genocidal war on the Gaza Strip following a Hamas attack last year, killing nearly 44,000 people, most of them women and children, and injuring over 104,000.
The second year of genocide in Gaza has drawn growing international condemnation, with figures and institutions labeling the attacks and blocking of aid deliveries a deliberate attempt to destroy a population.
Israel also faces a genocide case at the International Court of Justice for its deadly war on Gaza.

Dr. Hussam Abu Safia, director of Kamal Adwan hospital who accused Israel of blocking the entry of food, water, medical staff and materials destined for the north, said that a large number of children and elderly people continue to arrive to the hospital suffering from malnutrition.
The WHO has also raised alarm over the dire conditions in hospitals across northern Gaza, with Kamal Adwan Hospital in Beit Lahiya facing what its director called an “extreme catastrophe.” WHO spokeswoman Margaret Harris told journalists in Geneva
“We are very, very concerned, and it’s getting harder and harder to get the aid in. It’s getting harder and harder to get the specialist personnel in at a time when there is greater and greater need.”

Norway is to ask the International Court of Justice (ICJ) for an advisory opinion after the Israeli occupation Knesset prevented UNRWA from practicing its work in Israel-occupied territories which makes the agency unable to enter aid to the Gaza Strip, according to The Guardian.
Norway’s deputy foreign minister, Andreas Motzfeldt Kravik, discussed at the United Nations in New York to draft resolution about this issue for the UN General Assembly.
“The international community cannot accept that the UN, international humanitarian organisations, and states continue to face systematic obstacles when working in Palestine and delivering humanitarian assistance to Palestinians under occupation,” Norwegian Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Støre said.
