A 22-year-old South African, Aaron Bayhack, has been identified as a member of the elite Ghost Unit within the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF), a sniper unit known for admitting to killing unarmed civilians in Gaza. Bayhack, a 2020 matriculant of King David Linksfield Schools, appears in a recent documentary, sparking concerns about South Africans’ participation in the attacks on Gaza.
