'Children are being killed due to this offensive': Ex-IDF commander gets interrogated | LBC

With Labour questioning UK arms exports to Israel due to the Rafah offensive, Nick Ferrari speaks to the IDF's former Deputy Commander Amir Avivi.

The former Deputy tells Nick Ferrari that: 'the West does not want Israel to win the war... it's either Hamas or us'.

This comes as Israel said it has taken operational control of the Gaza side of the Rafah crossing after rejecting Hamas' ceasefire proposal as a "ruse". The IDF said the crossing had been captured and cut off, with special forces now in the area.

Labour's new West Midlands mayor told LBC he would ‘absolutely’ support an arms embargo on Israel, and Rishi Sunak has expressed 'deep concern' over the situation. The US has also stopped sending bombs to Israel over these concerns.

Amir Avivi was accused by Nick Ferrari of 'dodging the question' when asked 'what sort of life is it for these innocent children, Deputy?'
