Calls for Gaza Cease-Fire Grow as Israel Vows to Dismantle Hamas
Israel's European allies, including the UK, Germany, and France, are calling for a cease-fire in the conflict with Hamas, expressing concern over civilian casualties and the displacement of Palestinians.
The US Defense Secretary, Lloyd Austin, is expected to pressure Israeli leaders to end the intense phase of the war and transition to a more targeted strategy against Hamas during his visit to Israel.
Domestic and international pressure for renewed negotiations with Hamas is likely to increase following the accidental killing of three Israeli hostages by the military.
The United States is threatening vetoes to enforce the reasons of the Jewish state. In Cairo, the leader of the Haniyeh militia seeks a humanitarian break. Prime Minister Netanyahu replies: Hamas can surrender or die
The United States, Egypt and Qatar are trying to bring about a second, temporary, cessation of fighting between Israel and Hamas. This should, among other things, lead to the release of new Israeli hostages.
