Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has signaled a significant expansion of military operations in Gaza, indicating plans to occupy the entire territory as ceasefire negotiations appear to have collapsed. The announcement marks a dramatic escalation in the ongoing conflict and suggests that diplomatic efforts to end the war have reached a critical impasse.
According to The Washington Post, Netanyahu’s office released a statement confirming that he would convene his security cabinet this week to chart the next phase of military action. The Israeli leader outlined his intention to pursue what he described as a comprehensive occupation of the Gaza Strip, moving beyond the current limited operations to establish full territorial control, a strategy that has drawn international criticism and controversy in various forums.
