兩天內兩起致命槍擊事件凸顯以色列未能解決加薩權力真空問題
上週末,以色列士兵在以色列支持的援助站和聯合國車隊附近射殺了巴勒斯坦人。這兩起事件都顯示以色列拒絕允許新的治理結構出現。
一年半以來,專家一直警告稱,以色列未能規劃加薩權力過渡將導致無政府狀態,使援助物資的發放更加困難,並阻礙擊敗哈馬斯的努力。
上週末在加薩發生的一系列槍擊事件——一起發生在加薩南部邊境附近,另一起發生在其北部邊緣——凸顯了這些預測的準確性。
週六,以色列士兵向混亂地前往以色列控制區內由以色列支持的私人承包商運營的食品分發點的平民開火。週日,以色列士兵向衝向聯合國派往哈馬斯控制區的食品卡車車隊搶奪援助物資的平民開火。以色列軍方表示,其士兵只是“鳴槍示警”,以震懾構成“威脅”的人。
以色列支持的體系的支持者利用周日發生的這一事件,凸顯了聯合國主導的體系的失敗。支持聯合國體系的人士表示,週六的殺戮事件顯示以色列的做法是失敗的。
2 Deadly Shootings in 2 Days Highlight Israel’s Failure to Address Gaza’s Power Vacuum
Over the weekend, Israeli soldiers shot Palestinians near an Israeli-backed aid site and a U.N. convoy. Both episodes pointed to Israel’s refusal to allow new governance structures to emerge.
For a year and a half, experts have warned that Israel’s failure to plan for a power transition in Gaza would lead to anarchy, make it harder to deliver aid and stymie efforts to defeat Hamas.
A sequence of shootings in Gaza over the weekend — one near Gaza’s southern border, another at its northern edge — have highlighted the accuracy of those predictions.
On Saturday, Israeli soldiers opened fire on civilians who were moving chaotically toward food distribution sites run by Israeli-backed private contractors in Israeli-controlled areas. On Sunday, Israeli soldiers opened fire on civilians who were rushing to seize aid from a convoy of food trucks sent by the United Nations toward areas controlled by Hamas. The Israeli military said its soldiers had fired “warning shots” to deter people who posed a “threat.”
Supporters of the Israeli-backed system used the episode on Sunday to highlight the failures of the U.N.-led system. Those favoring the U.N. system said the killings on Saturday illustrated the failures of Israel’s approach.
