• Video shows 'Israeli' soldier confessing to killing and raping Palestinians during Gaza operations.

A video circulating on social media has sparked outrage after a 'Israeli' soldier admitted to committing atrocities in Gaza. In a live TikTok session with American YouTuber Jeff Davidson, the soldier said, "We don't just kill, we also rape," referring to actions carried out against Palestinian civilians amid the ongoing mass killings.

The soldier, serving with the 'Israeli' army in Gaza, displayed footage of destroyed neighborhoods, stating, "Do not be surprised, there are no houses here; they have been flattened." When Davidson replied, "You destroyed them," the soldier confirmed, "Yes."

Civilian Casualties and Children

The discussion turned to Gaza's children. The soldier showed a photo of a child holding a weapon, claiming it was found in a home. Davidson challenged this, saying, "If there are children waiting with weapons because they know you are coming, I do not blame them. Look at what you have done in Gaza. The presence of children does not justify targeting them."

The soldier responded with offensive language before making the chilling declaration: "We have killed women and children. And by the way, don't worry, we also rape them."

Calls for Accountability

Human rights organizations have highlighted the video as a serious testimony to the abuses allegedly committed by the 'Israeli' military against Gaza civilians. Observers note that political support from the United States and Western allies contributes to a perceived culture of impunity for these acts.

The widespread dissemination of the video has renewed calls for independent international investigations and accountability for potential crimes.

'Israel' was accused of war crimes, crimes against humanity, acts of genocide, and ethnic cleansing against Palestinians in both Gaza and the West Bank. The report states that these violations led to hundreds of thousands of deaths, injuries, and displacements amid US complicityو According to Human Rights Watch's 2025 annual report.

The organization emphasized that the 2025 violations occurred on an "unprecedented scale in recent 'Israeli'-Palestinian history," raising urgent concerns about civilian protection and international oversight.
