‘Israel Today’ newspaper said today, Sunday, that Israeli Heritage Minister Amichai Eliyahu suggested dropping a nuclear bomb on the Gaza Strip would be one of the options to be considered.

“We must recognize what scares them enough to force them to flee, as death does not frighten them. Thus, we must search for ways to horrify and eliminate them,” the Israeli minister said.

“I disagree with those who refer to Gaza Palestinians as civilians. In Gaza, there are no civilians, and there is no difference between them and Hamas,” Eliyahu added.

Referring to the Israeli captives taken by Hamas and other Palestinian factions throughout Operation Al-Aqsa Flood, the Zionist minister said, “The lives of Israeli captives and detainees are no more valuable than the lives of soldiers, and we must recognize that warfare entails human losses.”

Yifat Biton, a Knesset member, reacted to the aforementioned comments, saying that “through his statement, a stupid minister is destroying ‘Israeli’ propaganda efforts around the world. The only way to reply is to dismiss him immediately.”

Palestinian Factions Respond
The Hamas movement perceived the Zionist minister’s statements as evidence of the enemy government’s terrorism against the Palestinians.

According to the Islamic Jihad movement, `Israel` is gradually carrying out what its minister stated, and all evidence exposes the severity of their ongoing crimes.

“What the minister in the Zionist government said about dropping a nuclear bomb on Gaza was not a slip of the tongue or an act contrary to reality, as the criminal Netanyahu tried to justify. Rather, it is reality itself as the thousands of tons of explosives are being dropped by the IOF on the Strip”, said the head of the media office in Gaza.
