Israel's Defense Minister Voices Support for IDF Unit Slated for U.S. Sanctions
(Times of Israel) Emanuel Fabian - Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant met with troops of the Netzah Yehuda Battalion on the Gaza border on Monday, amid plans by the U.S. to impose sanctions on the unit. "The entire defense establishment, the IDF and the State of Israel support you, appreciate you and strengthen you in your operations to protect the State of Israel," Gallant said. "No one in the world will teach us what morality is and what norms are." The unit, made up of Orthodox troops and part of the Kfir Brigade, has been operating in the Beit Hanoun area amid the war, after months on the Syrian border. It had previously been stationed in the West Bank.
