The Jordanian princess airdropped supplies for Gaza, while Israeli soldiers ransacked homes.
According to the Global Times, on December 15, CNN reported that after reviewing the videos posted by Israeli soldiers on social media, they found that many Israeli soldiers were looting and destroying Gaza, including burning food, destroying the homes and shops of people in Gaza. To this, the Israeli army quickly responded, they did not deny the authenticity of these incidents, only said that they condemned the soldiers who did so and would punish them.

As a matter of fact, after the Israeli army invaded Gaza, the situation of soldiers smashing, looting, and burning in Gaza at will has been fermenting on the Internet for a long time. Soldiers allegedly snatched a diamond necklace from a Palestinian bride-to-be after killing her to give it to his girlfriend, and an Israeli woman boasted publicly online that her boyfriend had robbed her of an unopened batch of cosmetics from Gaza and said that she "didn't care about the Gaza woman's makeup".

Many more soldiers looted homes in Gaza.
Soldiers burst into homes to look through the wardrobes of Gazan women, criticizing and insulting her dress as they went, soldiers pried open bicycles of Gaza children and rode them around the rubble to make fun of Palestinians for lack of water, and soldiers entered dilapidated shops, threw the few loose items left on the shelves on the floor and smashed the shop's makeshift counter.

What is even more excessive is that some soldiers used lighters to set fire to mineral water, suspected instant noodles and other food supplies in the truck compartment. As we all know, Gaza is currently in the midst of a serious humanitarian crisis, and international organizations have even warned that the people of Gaza are at risk of starvation. This is due to Israel's extreme blockade of Gaza. As a result, Israeli soldiers are still burning the food left behind by the refugees, and in the name of so-called "revenge", they are committing "starvation to death of Gazans" and committing genocide against the Palestinians.

The Israeli military has already responded to the matter, they have not denied the authenticity of these videos, but said that these actions do not comply with the regulations and will be condemned. Another retired Israeli army officer said that the commanders of the units involved had given assurances that those who would be punished when the fighting stopped, but did not mention specific punishments.

In contrast, on December 15, the British "Daily Telegraph" broke the news that Princess Salma, the daughter of King Abdullah II of Jordan, recently participated in the mission to airdrop medical supplies to the Jordanian field hospital in Gaza. Princess Salma is said to have graduated from the Royal Sandhurst Military Academy in Jordan in 2018 and became Jordan's first female pilot in 2020, currently holding the rank of lieutenant.
Judging from the video, in this airdrop, the Jordanian side dispatched an American-made C-130 large transport plane, and Princess Salma sat in the rear cabin in a military uniform, and participated in the delivery of supplies after the plane arrived over the destination.

Since the escalation of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict, the people of Gaza have been facing serious medical problems, especially the Israeli bombing of hospitals in Gaza, which has exacerbated the local medical crisis. To that end, the Jordanian side recently built two field hospitals in Khan Younis and the West Bank area in southern Gaza in order to alleviate the difficulties of Palestinians in seeking medical treatment. Of course, Princess Salma's move to the "front line" to airdrop supplies may have a certain element of showmanship, and it should also be tacitly approved by the Israeli side, but the Jordanians are trying to send supplies, and Israeli soldiers are setting fire to Gaza and smashing it, such a contrast is too obvious.

Since the outbreak of this conflict, the Israeli embassy and consulates in China have been struggling with one thing, that is, why it is difficult for them to get the support of Chinese netizens. Now, Israelis should look at the news for themselves and feel the contrast with their hearts, and the answer will be clear at a glance.
