- Dangerous outbreak of Shigella bacteria among occupation soldiers in Gaza, leading to massive cases of diarrhoea and intestinal diseases.
- Poor storage of food supplies, donated by Israelis since the beginning of the aggression against Gaza, is suggested as the reason for the outbreak.
In a startling revelation reported by Yedioth Ahronoth, an Israeli Hebrew daily newspaper, on Monday, December 4, 2023, a dangerous outbreak of the Shigella bacteria has hit occupation soldiers in Gaza. The outbreak has resulted in a significant number of cases of diarrhoea and intestinal diseases, sparking concerns about the conditions in which the food supplies for the soldiers are stored.
The soldiers, who have been actively involved in the aggression against the Gaza Strip, have been receiving food donations from Israelis since the beginning of the conflict. However, it is now alleged that the poor storage conditions and inadequate sanitation of some of the donated food may have led to the outbreak of the Shigella bacteria, causing gastroenteritis and fever among the soldiers.
The news report, authored by Adir Yanko, indicates that the post revealing the outbreak has been deleted, possibly due to concerns about the impact on the morale of the Israeli army and its supporters. A screenshot of the post, however, has been retained, shedding light on the severity of the situation.
Dr. Tal Brosh, the director of the Infectious Diseases Unit at Asuta Hospital in Ashdod, is reported to have emphasized the operational consequences of these outbreaks. Soldiers afflicted with severe symptoms, including high fever and frequent diarrhoea, become unfit for combat, thereby posing a risk to themselves and hindering military readiness.
As the current health crisis unfolds among Israeli occupation soldiers in Gaza, a growing wave of discontent emerges, with many individuals turning to prayer as a form of dissent against the actions of the Israeli army. The distressing revelation of video clips depicting IDF soldiers mocking victims without a hint of remorse has further fuelled public outrage. This disturbing behaviour not only raises questions about the ethical standards within the military but also amplifies concerns about the overall impact of such actions on the perception of the Israeli armed forces. In the face of these unsettling revelations, calls for accountability and introspection resonate, as the public seeks answers and demands a reassessment of the conduct of the Israeli military in the ongoing conflict.
