Right-wing commentator Yinon Magal issued a sharp message Sunday evening to left-wing media channels he says are accusing the government of an 'abandonment zone' in northern Israel. 'This is a war to protect our citizens. Stop it — there are costs to defending the people,' Magal stated, according to a post on his the source.
Right-wing commentator and journalist Yinon Magal posted a sharp statement on his the source Sunday evening, aimed at left-wing media outlets that have reportedly been accusing the government of creating an 'abandonment zone' (רצועת הפקרה) in northern Israel amid the ongoing security escalation. Magal wrote: 'This is a war to protect our citizens. Stop it — there are costs to defending the people!' The post appeared shortly after a report by a single source Monday on a replica of a similar CNN clash between Magal and journalist Barak Ravid over the US-Iran nuclear deal (The Zioneer, June 17). Magal's latest message reflects ongoing public debate over the government's handling of the northern front and the civilian toll, though the post itself contains no new operational details.
