The Israeli soldiers refusing to fight
The 成人快手 speaks to reservists refusing to return to the war in Gaza.
The 成人快手 has spoken to Israeli reservists who are refusing to return to the war in Gaza. Imbued with a sense of national duty following the October 7th attack by Hamas, but now troubled by the things they鈥檝e witnessed in Gaza, some Israeli soldiers say they won鈥檛 return to the army.
We hear from one soldier who compares the devastation inflicted by Israel鈥檚 military in the Gaza Strip to an apocalypse, and said his colleagues would routinely loot and vandalise Palestinian houses, claims denied by the Israeli military authorities.
成人快手 special correspondent Fergal Keane has spoken to several of them, and tells our presenter Azadeh Moshiri why their stories reflect deep political divisions which exist within Israeli society.
