Israeli parliamentarians call for Palestinians to be killed if they burn rubbish

In Israel’s Knesset, far-right lawmaker Tzvi Succot called for the killing of Palestinians accused of burning waste in the occupied West Bank.

Speaking during a session of the Interior and Environmental Protection Committee on illegal waste fires, Succot escalated his rhetoric, saying, "The Air Force should act and kill them."

His remarks, reported by the Israeli daily Haaretz, targeted Palestinians living under occupation rather than addressing the deeper crisis of waste management imposed by Israel’s control over land and infrastructure.

According to Israeli media reports, Environment Minister Idit Silman and committee chair Yitzhak Kroizer backed his position, signalling official support for a response rooted in the further killing Palestinians.
