"No Civilians. Everyone's a Terrorist': IDF Soldiers Expose Arbitrary Killings and Rampant Lawlessness in Gaza's Netzarim Corridor
'Of 200 bodies, only 10 were confirmed as Hamas members': IDF soldiers who served in Gaza tell Haaretz that anyone who crosses an imaginary line in the contested Neztarim corridor is shot to death, with every Palestinian casualty counting as a terrorist – even if they were just a child"
Av 200 drepte skal 10 ha vært Hamas.
200 minus 10 = 190 uskyldige.
200 minus 10 = 190 uskyldige.

Division staff repeatedly sought intervention from Southern Command chief Major General Yaron Finkelman over Vach's conduct, but Vach seemed to disregard even Finkelman's authority.
In early November, Vach's division left the corridor, replaced by Division 99. Before their final rotation ended, officers demanded
explanations for his unauthorized "kill line" and other actions. "This is unprecedented – conducting war with everyone doing whatever they want in their sector. Operations launched without proper orders or procedures, just because Vach decided," an officer present says.
Vach obsessed over a "an image of victory" – not Israel's, but his own. He believed emptying northern Gaza of Palestinians would be his triumph. "We didn't meet the goal," he admitted in December. His attempt to drive out 250,000 residents clinging to their homes largely failed, with only hundreds crossing south.
He told officers that Palestinians must lose their land to learn from Hamas' October 7 massacre. "First he talked about expelling everyone south, thinking he'd implement the Generals' Plan alone," a commander recalls. When that proved impossible, he sought alternatives. None materialized.
In March, Vach is set to return with Division 252 to the Netzarim corridor.
