As the Israeli army encircles Gaza and the launch of a ground invasion to completely neutralize Hamas forces is expected in the coming hours, the security minister in Jerusalem has floated the idea of arming Jewish civilians.
"The war shows that it is necessary to distribute weapons to the citizens," said Minister Itamar Ben Gvir.
Referring to the May 2021 riots in which widespread violence erupted in Israeli cities with mixed Jewish and Arab populations, Ben Gvir said he had instructed the police chief to prepare to face a new uprising.
"I think it's close," he said.
Ben Gvir spoke to the press in Sderot, a town near the Gaza Strip, stressing: "I have given orders that from today everyone here can walk armed."
Therefore, the spokesman of the army, Daniel Hagari, has informed the media that 18 members of the Hamas militia were killed by the Israeli forces. "These are the terrorists who did not return to Gaza. This is the reason why checks are carried out with a large number of soldiers", he explained.
Meanwhile, it is reported that at least 7 journalists have been killed in the Gaza Strip since Hamas began its attack on Israel. This is reported by press freedom groups, according to which this number may rise even further in the coming days.
As for Gaza, the President of the Palestinian Energy Authority, Thafer Melhem, announced that two million residents will be completely without electricity within 10-12 hours, as the only power plant that supplies the area will run out of fuel as a result of the blockade by Israel. .
