The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) have declared that the safe corridor in the central Gaza Strip has turned into a battleground. Representatives of the Israeli army have called on the population of Gaza to evacuate along the coast.
General Hisham Ibrahim, the commander of the Israeli Armored Forces, stated that the operation in the northern part of the Gaza Strip is nearing its conclusion. He added that the IDF continues to operate in other areas of the enclave against the radical Hamas movement.
Earlier, the newspaper Haaretz reported, citing an unnamed diplomat, that Western countries are concerned about the buffer zone proposed by Israel near the Gaza border. There are fears in the West that it could become permanent. Discussions are also underway regarding whether to support Israel’s initiative to create this zone.
Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas has previously called on the International Criminal Court (ICC) to intensify its work on Israeli war crimes.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has also not ruled out the destruction of Lebanon due to the actions of Hezbollah.
In light of these developments, tensions in the region remain high, and the international community is closely monitoring the situation. The ongoing conflict between Israel and Hamas continues to draw attention and raises concerns about the potential for further escalation. The IDF’s call for Gaza residents to evacuate highlights the seriousness of the situation and the potential for further violence. The buffer zone proposal by Israel has also sparked debates and concerns among Western countries. The demand by Palestinian President Abbas for the ICC to investigate Israeli war crimes adds another layer of complexity to the conflict. The statements made by Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu regarding the actions of Hezbollah further exacerbate tensions in the region. As the situation unfolds, the international community awaits further developments and hopes for a peaceful resolution to the ongoing conflict.
