Israeli President Herzog: 'There is a dehumanization spreading from the periphery to the center of society'

According to TRT Haber, Israeli President Isaac Herzog clearly expressed that a 'dehumanization' process spreading from the periphery to the center is occurring within Israeli society.

Herzog's remarks coincided with a period of intensified military operations by Israel in Gaza and Lebanon. The use of such harsh language by the head of state regarding his own society reverberated widely in Israeli public opinion and international media.

In a separate report by Al Jazeera, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu announced that they would 'intensify' attacks against Hezbollah in Lebanon, and it was noted that the Israeli military continued operations against Hezbollah positions accordingly.

The escalating military situation in the region and Herzog's unusually stark remarks to the domestic public laid bare the extent to which political and social tensions in Israel have reached.
