Israeli soldiers have turned a mosque in Rafah in southern Gaza into a cooking place.

A clip that emerged on social media showed a mosque being used by soldiers to serve meals.

The video features large tables inside the mosque on which Israeli soldiers had placed various types of food items.

A sticker affixed to a cardboard food box used by soldiers is also shown, with a production date of May 22, which is likely when the video was shot.

Israeli military vehicles also appear stationed inside the Rafah border crossing near the mosque.

Israel has faced international condemnation amid its continued brutal offensive on Gaza since Oct. 7, 2023, despite a UN Security Council resolution demanding an immediate cease-fire.

More than 37,200 Palestinians have since been killed in Gaza, most of them women and children, and more than 84,900 others injured, according to local health authorities.


Eight months into the Israeli war, vast tracts of Gaza lay in ruins amid rampant starvation.
