The Kfir Brigade, one of the largest infantry brigades in the Israeli army, has faced significant scrutiny due to its long history of human rights violations and its recent military operations in the West Bank. Established in 2005, the brigade has been involved in numerous controversial actions, including the recent 'Summer Camps' operation, which has raised international concerns about its conduct and the implications for Palestinian civilians.
The Kfir Brigade's history includes a range of battalions, each with distinct operational focuses, from urban warfare to counter-terrorism. Despite allegations of violence and extremism, the brigade continues to receive military support, raising questions about accountability and the role of international actors in addressing human rights abuses.
