'I cannot do it, I would rather go to jail,' Former IDF soldier on why he refuses to serve in Gaza

Michael Ofer-Ziv said he could not continue to serve because of the “dehumanisation” of Palestinians he witnessed in Gaza.

He is one of 130 IDF members refusing to serve unless the Israeli government works to obtain a hostage and ceasefire deal

Michael said there is no justification for killing civilians, especially children - but not everyone agrees with him

Taoiseach calls for an end to conflict in the Middle East as tensions between Iran and Israel worsen

Iran said two soldiers were killed in Israeli strikes, which targeted military bases in Ilam, Khuzestan and Tehran provinces.

A senior White House official said the administration believed the Israeli operation should “close out” the direct military exchange between Israel and Iran.

The UK and Germany have also called for de-escalation and urged Iran not to respond to the strikes.
