Title: Exclusive report: Testimony of the Israeli army on mission in Gaza during the war
Introduction:
In rare access to ongoing military operations, our correspondent in Israel, Claire Duhamel, was able to accompany the Israeli army for more than two hours in the Gaza Strip. While the war has been raging for several weeks, this unique opportunity made it possible to closely document the reality on the ground and shed light on the challenges facing the army. However, it should be noted that the images captured were subject to military censorship in order to ensure the safety of the soldiers engaged.
Conditions of constant danger:
Lt. Col. Gilad Pasternak, who oversees several army battalions, highlighted the dangers they face in these situations, such as mortar and drone fire. These risks make each mission uncertain and highlight the courage and determination of the Israeli soldiers involved.
A devastated landscape:
Aboard an armored tank, Claire Duhamel could only observe the devastation caused by the war in the suburbs of Gaza City. The streets are covered in dust kicked up by armored vehicles, while thousands of civilians try to flee south. Some of them travel on improvised carriages, while others wave white flags, witnesses to their innocence in these troubled times. The report also highlights the vigilance of a young and determined sniper, facing the constant threat of an ambush by Hamas fighters who could mix with the crowd of fleeing civilians.
Military censorship:
Images captured in the field were subject to military censorship, a prerequisite for their production. The Israeli military insists on approving all footage released in order to protect the safety of its soldiers. Thus, certain soldiers’ faces were blurred, as were the screens and GPS of armored vehicles. However, it is important to note that the comments made in the report have not been controlled or censored, thus guaranteeing transparency in the narration of the events.
Conclusion:
This exclusive report offers a rare and valuable insight into ongoing military operations in the Gaza Strip. Despite the constant dangers they face, Israeli soldiers demonstrate courage and determination in carrying out their mission. Military censorship highlights the importance of protecting the safety of troops, while ensuring transparency in the dissemination of this information. Thanks to this testimony, readers have the opportunity to better understand the complex realities of this war which continues to wreak havoc.
