Israel faced global condemnation over the strikes on Rafah, with Morgan describing scenes from the city as «horrific.»
Piers Morgan criticized Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu over Israel’s «indefensible» strikes on Rafah.
Morgan, a British conservative political commentator, raised concerns about Israel’s latest strikes on Gaza in a post to X, formerly Twitter, on Monday morning.
«The scenes from Rafah overnight are horrific. I’ve defended Israel’s right to defend itself after Oct7, but slaughtering so many innocent people as they cower in a refugee camp is indefensible. Stop this now @netanyahu,» Morgan posted.
On October 7, 2023, militant group Hamas launched an attack against Israel, killing 1,200 people and taking about 250 others hostage. Israel subsequently launched an offensive in the Gaza Strip that has killed more than 35,000 Palestinians in the months since, according to the Associated Press, citing the Gaza Ministry of Health. Israel’s offensive has sparked global concerns about the number of civilians who have been killed.
