The armed conflict between Israel and Palestinian Hamas has lasted for 50 days now, and although the Israeli army has the upper hand in the war situation, as time goes by, more and more scandals about the Israeli army have been exposed, and the victorious generals in the Middle East have fallen off the altar in an instant. On 25 December, Turkey's Anadolu news agency reported that the Israeli army had killed 12 Israeli hostages in a tragic incident at one time, and that Israeli opposition leaders had now called for an investigation into the killing of 12 hostages by Israeli forces. Former leader of the Israeli Labor Party, Shelyachimovich, broke the news in a statement on the 24th that when the Israeli army launched a strike on a house near the Gaza Strip in October, Brigadier General Shiram ordered a tank to attack a house in the Baili area**, killing 12 Israeli hostages, including children.

When Hamas launched a surprise attack on Israel on October 7, in addition to killing more than 1,400 Israelis, it also took about 260 Israeli hostages from Israel. According to Seryachimović, the main reason why the Israeli army killed 12 Israeli hostages at one time was because of the problematic guiding ideology of his army. The Israeli army's Hannibal Protocol stipulates that dead Israelis are preferable to hostages taken by the enemy. In other words, once the Israelites fell into the hands of the enemy, they would rather kill the captured Israelites themselves than become prisoners of the enemy. The Hannibal Protocol was drafted in 1986 and repealed in 2016 by Israel's then-Chief of General Staff, Gadi Eisenkot. However, there are still some Israeli soldiers who dispose of their captured comrades in accordance with the rules of this protocol.

It is not difficult to understand why during the Palestinian-Israeli conflict, there were many incidents of Israel mistakenly killing hostages. On December 15, during an operation by the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) in the densely populated community of Shujaiyeh east of Gaza City, three Israeli hostages emerged from a building topless and holding white flags and approached Israeli soldiers dozens of meters away, where they were killed despite shouting for help in Hebrew. Twelve hostages were killed by tanks, which is much worse than the three hostages shot at them. The killing of hostages by Israeli soldiers is currently being questioned both locally and internationally. The American newspaper The New York Times recently published an investigative report on the killing of 12 Israeli hostages during the bombing of a house on the Gimbutz in Bebz, confirming that this was the decision of an Israeli military commander. At present, there are frequent demonstrations in Israel by relatives of the hostages, who demand that reconciliation with Hamas be made as soon as possible so that all the hostages can be released. In particular, after the Israeli military killed hostages many times, they were even more worried that their relatives did not die at the hands of Hamas, but died under the fire of their own people. It is worth noting that the Palestinian-Israeli conflict has caused serious losses to both sides. The number of Gaza Strip residents killed in Israeli attacks rose to 20,258, with another 53,688 injured, the Gaza Strip health department said. The number of Israeli soldiers killed in the Gaza Strip has reached 156, and the death toll of the Israeli army in Gaza on October 7 when Hamas raid on October 7 is approaching 500.
