Israel is reporting one of its deadliest days in Gaza in months as its military says seven soldiers have been killed in a bomb attack.

The Higher Commission for Tribal Affairs, which represents influential clans in the enclave, said trucks had been protected as part of an aid security process.

The Haaretz report includes firsthand testimony from multiple Israeli soldiers, one of whom described his post as a “killing field,” where “between one and five people were killed every day.” Another said civilians are treated “like a hostile force,” even though “there’s no enemy, no weapons.”
