Israel rejects international criticism of Gaza City takeover plan

Israel rejects international criticism of Gaza City takeover plan

Israel has rejected international criticism of its planned takeover of Gaza City, with the defence minister asserting that countries condemning Israel and threatening sanctions "will not weaken our resolve." The planned operation aims to assert control over the city, which has been a key area of conflict between Israel and Palestinian factions. Israel has claimed that the move is necessary for security reasons, citing ongoing threats from Palestinian groups in the region. However, the announcement has drawn widespread condemnation from the international community, with concerns raised about the potential for civilian casualties and the further escalation of tensions in the region. Israel has defended its position, stating that it will not be deterred by external pressure and that it will continue to take the necessary actions to protect its citizens.
