A recent statement from Israel's Minister of National Security has sparked attention. Itamar Ben-Gvir, a member of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's coalition, made comments about killing people in Gaza.

The comments, which surfaced on Sunday, were made while Ben-Gvir was speaking to a former hostage. Palestinian media quickly shared the statement, which has been reported to include a specific number of people Ben-Gvir suggested should be killed nightly.

Further details about the statement and the context in which it was made are available from the source. The comments have been attributed to Ben-Gvir, an extremist Israeli lawmaker, and have been shared by Palestinian media outlets.
