In yet another incident revealing the extent of internal divisions within the Israeli entity, the Israeli newspaper Israel Hayom reported that settlers evacuated from the Erez settlement in the Gaza Envelope were "shocked" by writings on the walls of the temporary residences they were relocated to in the Kiryat Gat settlement.

The newspaper revealed that the settlers found "offensive writings" against captives held by the Palestinian Resistance in Gaza, in addition to writings "inciting harm to opposition leader Yair Lapid and the left," while other writings expressed support for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

According to the report, Israeli police were summoned to gather evidence at the scene and opened an investigation into the incident.

Commenting on the incident, Lapid said he doesn't need "anyone to condemn that, we won't be intimidated by every fool," according to the Israeli newspaper Maariv.

In the same context, the Israeli Channel 12 suggested that at a time when a team of Israelis, including the captives' families, are calling for a prisoner swap deal with Hamas, Netanyahu does not want to put an end to the war in the Gaza Strip.

It is noteworthy that the Israeli occupation entity has been witnessing weekly protests staged by the families and friends of the captives held by the Resistance in Gaza.

The protesters are calling on the Israeli government to swiftly complete a prisoner exchange deal amid the Israeli military's failure to retrieve the captives after launching an ongoing brutal war on the Gaza Strip.

In light of Netanyahu's threat to invade the southern city of Rafah in Gaza to "eliminate Hamas", reserve General Israel Ziv warned that Israeli captives would likely not survive if Israeli forces invaded the city.

Ziv told the Israeli Channel 12 that a possible invasion of Rafah would not be quick and would "last for months," meaning that the Israeli captives would be subject to harsher circumstances imposed on them by their own military.

"It [the operation] may end without any Israeli prisoners alive," he told the broadcaster.

Ziv reiterated his call for a prisoner exchange deal with the Palestinian Resistance, saying that taking the decision would be a "valid call."

Additionally, he considered that the Netanyahu government is committing a "strategic mistake," underscoring the negative outcomes of the invasion of Rafah.

"The keys (to Rafah) will be handed back to Hamas again, as happened in Khan Younis and the northern Gaza Strip."
