A New York Times investigation has revealed that Israel has severely weakened a system of safeguards intended to protect civilians in the ongoing war on the Gaza Strip.
He said Israel had used flawed methods to identify targets and assess the risk of civilian casualties in Gaza, adding that it had failed to assess the harm to civilians after the bombing or punish officers for violations.
The investigation pointed out that the Israeli army ignored Israeli and American warnings about these failures, stressing that Israel greatly expanded the military targets it sought to hit in preemptive air strikes.
He also explained that Israel had greatly reduced the use of warning shots that give civilians time to flee, and the newspaper quoted 5 Israeli officers as saying that "the prevailing mood within the army after October 7 was to attack the enemy without deterrence," according to their description.
