After New York Times says IDF uses Gazans as human shields, army says its orders forbid this
Lazar Berman is The Times of Israel's diplomatic reporter
Responding to a New York Times article that claims IDF soldiers in Gaza regularly use civilians as human shields, the military tells The Times of Israel that “the orders and instructions of the IDF forbid using civilians in Gaza who were arrested in the field for military missions.”
It adds: “The orders and instructions are made clear regularly to soldiers in the field during the war.”
