Former Defense Minister Moshe Ya'alon refuses to apologize for accusing Israel of carrying out 'ethnic cleansing' in Gaza and says the Israel Defense Forces is not the most moral army in the world. Ya'alon claims that politicians are corrupting the army and instructing it to carry out war crimes. He warns IDF Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Herzi Halevi to pay attention to orders to evacuate the population of large areas of Gaza. Ya'alon suggests that the International Criminal Court has a list of officials who will be investigated for war crimes, including far-right ministers Bezalel Smotrich and Itamar Ben Gvir.
