Le premier ministre s’est dit prêt à un «cessez-le-feu temporaire» pour libérer les «20 otages» vivants encore détenus dans la bande de Gaza.
 
L’armée israélienne contrôlera «toute la bande de Gaza » à la fin de l’offensive d’envergure lancée samedi dans le but affiché de libérer les otages et d’anéantir le Hamas, a déclaré mercredi le premier ministre Benyamin Netanyahou.
 
«S’il y a une option de cessez-le-feu temporaire, pour libérer des otages, nous serons prêts», a par ailleurs affirmé le premier ministre, lors d’une conférence de presse à Jérusalem, affirmant que 20 des 58 otages toujours à Gaza sont «en vie de façon certaine». Israël doit «éviter une crise humanitaire» pour garder sa liberté d’action, a-t-il ajouté, alors que l’extension des combats et les restrictions à l’entrée de l’aide humanitaire après deux et mois et demi d’un blocus total suscitent une vague de condamnations internationales.
 
Interdit par la procureur générale de nommer en l’état un successeur au chef démissionnaire de l’Agence de la sécurité intérieure (Shin Bet), Ronen Bar, Benyamin Netanyahou a déclaré que le gouvernement «sous, ma direction, va nommer le chef du Shin Bet».

Les Palestiniens ont le droit à la sécurité avant tout: leur voisin du nord les persécute depuis 70 ans, alors que ce sont bien les Palestiniens qui sont sur leur terres de manières légales depuis +2000 ans

Ils n'ont pas le choix.
Un 7 Octobre bis, même dans 30 ans, n'est pas envisageable.

Donc après 2 ans, la soit-disante meilleure armée du monde n'arrive toujours pas à trouver des mecs en sandales, et s'en prend donc aux civils innocents? La honte absolue. Aucune morale, aucun soutient international.

Netanyahu: Implementation of Trump’s Gaza relocation plan is condition for ending war
 
The fledgling Operation Gideon’s Chariots — the expanded operation in Gaza — is meant to “complete the war, the work” in Gaza, says Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
 
“Our forces are landing powerful blows that will get stronger against Hamas strongholds that still exist in Gaza,” he explains.
 
Netanyahu says that the houses of residents in towns near the Gaza border are shaking not because of Hamas missiles, but because of Israel’s firepower. “Our forces are taking more and more ground in order to clean them of terrorists and from Hamas terror infrastructure,” he says.
 
At the end of the operation, promises Netanyahu, “all of Gaza’s territories will be under Israeli security control, and Hamas will be totally defeated.”
 
He says that to maintain support from Israel’s allies, Jerusalem must prevent a humanitarian catastrophe in Gaza — attempting to explain his decision to renew entry of humanitarian aid into the Strip, which is deeply unpopular in right-wing circles.
 
He says that Israel’s closest friends, including in the Senate, tell him that the one thing they won’t accept is a humanitarian crisis in Gaza. Netanyahu stresses that Hamas loots aid shipments and sells the rest at exorbitant prices to fund its military activities.
 
He says that Israel developed along with the US a humanitarian aid plan to keep it out of Hamas’s hands. US Ambassador Mike Huckabee earlier this month claimed it was an American plan, not an Israeli plan.
 
Netanyahu says the plan has three stages – the entry of “basic food now” into Gaza to prevent a humanitarian crisis; opening aid distribution points in the coming days by US companies; and creating a “sterile zone” in southern Gaza for the civilian population to shelter in.
 
“In this zone, which will be totally free of Hamas, residents of Gaza will receive full humanitarian aid,” he explains.
 
Responding to those who are pushing for an end to war in Gaza, Netanyahu says he “is ready to end the war, under clear conditions that will ensure the safety of Israel – all the hostages come home, Hamas lays down its arms, steps down from power, its leadership is exiled from the Strip… Gaza is totally disarmed, and we carry out the Trump plan. A plan that is so correct and so revolutionary.”
 
This represents the first time the US president’s plan for moving Gaza civilians out of the Strip has been presented as an Israeli demand for ending the war.
 
Netanyahu claims that those who call for an end to the war before those demands are met are calling for Hamas to remain in power. That would, he argues, result in Hamas rebuilding carrying out atrocities like rape and baby burning.

The IDF says it is investigating.

Netanyahu says that the houses of residents in towns near the Gaza border are shaking not because of Hamas missiles, but because of Israel’s firepower. “Our forces are taking more and more ground in order to clean them of terrorists and from Hamas terror infrastructure,” he says.

IDF confirms that Hamas member killed on Saturday in West Bank was behind deadly terror shooting
 
Following an investigation led by the Shin Bet, police, and IDF, it was revealed that the suspect, Naael Samarah, carried out the shooting attack, a joint statement says.
 
Samarah, a member of Hamas, was previously jailed for his activity in the terror group. He was released in 2010 and jailed again for several days in 2019 for online incitement, according to the military.

According to multiple Israeli media reports, Israeli forces will occupy the entire Gaza Strip and expel the Palestinian population to a new area that will be built in the southwest, an area between the Morag axis and the Philadelphi corridor.
 
The new area will be cut off from the coast and bordered to the east by an ever-expanding buffer zone that Israel has established along the barrier fence between Gaza and Israel, according to a map published by Israel's Kan 11 channel.
 
According to the Israeli news website Ynet, the 'Gideon's Chariots' plan - named after Gideon, a biblical warrior who led a few hundred fighters in annihilating the Midianites, an ancient Arabic nomadic tribe - will be carried out in three stages.
 
These have been named as the "preparations" stage, the "population mobilisation" stage and the "ground manoeuvre."
 
According to Ynet, the "preparations" stage began a few weeks ago when the Israeli military began destroying all critical infrastructure in the southern district of Rafah, including residential buildings.
 
As part of this phase, which will last until Trump's visit to the Middle East on 16 May, the Israeli military will complete "preparations in the Rafah area for the long stay of nearly two million Gazans who will arrive there during the second phase."  

As per the second "population mobilisation" stage, the Israeli army will employ "intense fire" throughout the enclave and demand that all Palestinians leave their homes and go to the new site in Rafah.  
 
According to Ynet, the second phase has two goals: "Creating pressure on Hamas to stopping fighting, and to bring many Gazans closer to the border crossings near Egypt and Israel and to the beach," with the aim of encouraging Palestinians to "voluntarily leave" the Gaza Strip, "and thus fulfill the Trump plan."

Conquering the Gaza Strip
 
According to Ynet, as sick and wounded Palestinians are taken out of the enclave, the Israeli army will commence the third phase, which, according to the military's estimates, may take several months, in which a large-scale manoeuvre is expected.
 
The aim of this phase is to conquer the Gaza Strip and to remain in the occupied places for a long time.
 
As part of this phase, the Israeli army "will act systematically, to flatten the structures that could serve as fighting cover for Hamas, and will work to expose and destroy the tunnels that could be used by the terrorist organisation in a surprise guerrilla warfare against the forces on the ground," the report said.
 
Late on Monday, Israeli army spokesman Brigadier General Effie Defrin said the offensive "will include a wide-scale attack and the movement of the majority of the strip's population."

Vers un cessez-le-feu dans la bande de Gaza ? Mercredi soir, Benyamin Netanyahou s’est dit prêt à un arrêt des combats « temporaire » pour libérer des otages.

Tsahal émet un ordre d’évacuation générale dans le nord de Gaza après le tir d’une roquette
 
Suite à des tirs de roquettes depuis le nord de la bande de Gaza sur la ville côtière méridionale d’Ashkelon, l’armée israélienne émet un large avertissement d’évacuation.
 
Dans un post sur X, le porte-parole en langue arabe de l’armée israélienne, le colonel Avichay Adraee, appelle les Palestiniens résidant à Sheikh Zayed, Salatin, Beit Lahiya, Jabalia et dans les villes voisines à évacuer vers le sud.
 
Il s’agit, selon lui, d’un « dernier avertissement » avant que l’armée israélienne ne procède à des frappes dans cette région.
 
Une roquette a été lancée  sur Ashkelon et a été interceptée par les défenses aériennes, selon l’armée.
 
Le groupe terroriste palestinien du Jihad islamique a revendiqué ce tir.
