“This technology has made killing much more sterile,” H. said. “It’s like a video game. There’s a crosshair in the middle of the screen, and you see a video image. You’re hundreds of meters away, [sometimes] even a kilometer or more. Then you play with the joystick, see the target, and drop [a grenade]. And it’s even kind of cool. Except this video game kills people.” Excerpt from an article on 972mag.com: ‘Like a video game’: Israel enforcing Gaza evacuations with grenade-firing drones.

Many of the scenes described in the article remind me of historical novels written by witnesses of the German Holocaust. There were no drones back then, but today:
“You send a drone up 200 meters high, and you can see three to four kilometers in every direction,” said Y., another soldier who served in Rafah. “You patrol like that: you see someone approaching, the first one gets hit with a grenade, and after that, the word spreads. One or two more come, and they die. The rest understand.”
… drone fire was directed at people who were walking “suspiciously.” According to him, the general policy in his battalion was that someone who “walks too fast is suspicious because he’s fleeing. Someone who walks too slowly is also suspicious because [it suggests] he knows he’s being watched, so he’s trying to act normal.
A humanitarian city. That’s what Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz called these extermination camps for 600,000 Palestinians.
