Israel has entered a new phase in the Gaza war, with a focus on special operations rather than ground warfare. The announcement coincides with US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken’s upcoming visit, aiming to ease pressure from Washington and maintain support.
As Israel transitions to governing Gaza, Prime Minister Netanyahu is eyeing a new security system to prevent future conflicts. The third phase may last for months, with an emphasis on eliminating Hamas and securing Israeli interests.
Assassinations and infrastructure destruction are expected strategies in this phase, as Israel aims to establish control and ensure long-term stability. However, the Palestinian people continue to suffer the consequences of this conflict, with uncertainty looming over the region.
As leaders on both sides navigate the complexities of the war, the human cost remains the most tragic aspect of the ongoing crisis. With the future of Gaza hanging in the balance, the world watches as decisions are made and actions taken in the pursuit of peace.
