Ahead of the October elections, Israeli Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich and National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir, along with other right-wing ministers, have escalated anti-Palestinian rhetoric using AI advertisements and other methods, promoting policies such as settlement construction in the West Bank as part of their election campaigns. Meanwhile, the scope of airstrikes in the Gaza Strip has expanded, leading to an increase in civilian casualties among farmers, delivery personnel, fishermen, and children, with hospital facilities also being targeted. Settlement activities in the West Bank and East Jerusalem have intensified, with ongoing demolitions and violence, and the Israeli government accelerating land expropriation. As of August 31, the cumulative death toll in Gaza since October 2023 has reached 73,456.
