YouTube Description
as posted by the channelIsraeli ministers have approved a plan to capture all of Gaza and remain in the territory for an unspecified amount of time, two officials have said.
The move - if implemented - would greatly extent Israel’s operations in the Palestinian territory and likely bring harsh international opposition.
Cabinet ministers approved the plan in an early morning vote, hours after the Israeli military chief said the army was calling up tens of thousands of reserve soldiers.
Ministers agreed to ramp up the war against Hamas in Gaza, an official said, with plans to capture more territory in the beleaguered Palestinian enclave and call up tens of thousands of reserve soldiers.
On Sunday, Israel's military chief of staff, Lt Gen Eyal Zamir, said the army was calling up tens of thousands of reserve soldiers and said Israel would "operate in additional areas" in Gaza and continue to strike militant infrastructure.
Israel already controls roughly half of Gaza's territory, including a buffer zone along the border with Israel as well as three corridors that run east to west along the strip.
It could mark a significant escalation in the fighting in Gaza, which resumed in mid-March after Israel and Hamas failed to agree on an extension to an eight-week truce.
