The son of Itamar Ben-Gvir, Israel's National Security Minister, has reportedly established a special force aimed at tracking down and detaining Palestinian workers, an initiative that has generated considerable debate and concern globally.

Videos circulating on social media depict incidents where the group is seen pursuing Palestinian individuals, including an incident where they allegedly followed Palestinians who were attempting to escape from a wall using a rope.

This development comes amid heightened tensions and violence in the region, particularly following the escalation of conflict in Gaza.

According to recent reports, since October 7, 2023, the conflict has led to the deaths of at least 53,000 Palestinians and injured more than 120,000 individuals.

The severe humanitarian impact of these hostilities has drawn widespread international attention and condemnation.

Itamar Ben-Gvir has a history of making statements and participating in actions criticized for their anti-Palestinian sentiment.

He assumed the role of National Security Minister in 2025, after a long career in far-right Israeli politics.

Recent confrontations with pro-Palestine activists, such as during his visit to the US Capitol, have underscored the polarized sentiments surrounding his political stance.

Human rights organizations and pro-Palestinian advocates have expressed outrage over the establishment of such a force, labeling it as an inhumane approach that exacerbates the existing tensions in the region.

The ongoing conflict continues to elicit varying responses from governments and non-governmental entities worldwide, as the situation evolves.
