How Israel killed hundreds of its own people on 7 October, with Asa Winstanley and Ali Abunimah

Last week, we marked the first anniversary of the start of Israel’s genocide in Gaza, which followed the Palestinian resistance operation that routed the Israeli army’s Gaza Division in mere hours. EI associate editor Asa Winstanley and executive director Ali Abunimah speak to associate editor Nora Barrows-Friedman about the latest reporting on Israel’s widescale application of the Hannibal Directive on 7 October 2023 – the order that allows its forces to kill Israeli citizens to stop them being taken captive. This is a segment from The Electronic Intifada’s day 376 livestream. Ali Abunimah, Nora Barrows-Friedman, Jon Elmer and Asa Winstanley were joined by EI contributor Abubaker Abed live from the Gaza Strip, and award winning journalist Laila Al-Arian.
