Israeli name ‘civil death’ confession

Israel’s ambassador to Washington, Michael Herzog, spoke to the American press.

“According to the United States, 400,000 people are trapped in northern Gaza. There are thousands of Palestinian civilian victims. According to the White House National Security Advisor, more than 70 United Nations officials and 30 or more journalists were killed. Will your army change tactics as the United States wants? To the question he replied that he could not make any definitive comment on these figures.

Regarding the figures, Herzog said: “I will be very careful in evaluating these figures because neither you nor I know how many of them are armed terrorists and how many are civilians.”

“In every war there are undesirable consequences and civilian casualties,” Herzog said, adding that a ceasefire would only be possible with the release of those captured by Hamas. (AA)
