With 60,000 reservists, the IDF plans a four-phase offensive—encirclement, evacuation, and a final push into Gaza City. Netanyahu vowed no hostage will be left behind, while Trump backed Hamas’ “complete destruction.” Thousands flee south as Israel intensifies its most ambitious Gaza operation yet. #Israel #Hamas #GazaWar #OperationGideonsChariots #IsraelKatz #Netanyahu #MiddleEastWar #Trump #HostageCrisis #IDF #IsraelVsHamas #BreakingNews #WarInGaza #MilitaryOffensive #GazaUnderAttack #MiddleEastCrisis #DecisiveStage #IsraelStrikes #GazaCity #IsraelDefenseForces #GlobalConflict #SecurityCrisis #IsraelWarUpdate #HamasTargeted

‘Even If Hamas Disarms
’ Netanyahu’s SHOCKINGClaims On Gaza Takeover Despite Hamas’ Demilitarization

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu declared that Israel will conquer all of Gaza, even if Hamas agrees to a hostage deal, intensifying fears of an unrelenting military campaign. Speaking after the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) launched a new offensive on Gaza City, Netanyahu said Hamas’ removal is non-negotiable and compared leaving them in Gaza to leaving Nazis in Berlin. He cited U.S. President Donald Trump’s backing, noting Trump’s statement that Hamas “cannot stay” in Gaza. Despite mounting international condemnation and warnings from the UN and humanitarian groups, Netanyahu dismissed criticism as a “tsunami of anti-Semitism.” The humanitarian toll continues to escalate, with over 62,000 Palestinians reported killed since October 2023. Several nations, including France, are considering recognition of Palestine in response to the crisis. Netanyahu insists the war could end immediately if Hamas disarms, but vowed Israel will not stop short of total conquest. #Netanyahu #Gaza #Israel #Hamas #GazaWar #MiddleEast #BreakingNews #Palestine #Trump #IDF #Ceasefire #UN #HumanRights #HostageDeal #WarNews #IsraelPalestine #Conflict #WorldNews #GazaCity #InternationalCrisis ~ED.102~HT.408~

UN Declares First Famine in Middle East But Saudis Keep Quiet| Netanyahu Says Will Destroy Gaza If..

The UN has officially declared a famine in Gaza—the first ever in the Middle East—warning that over 500,000 Palestinians are already starving, with numbers expected to rise beyond 640,000 by September. The IPC has raised Gaza to Phase Five, its highest alert level, amid Israel’s blockade preventing vital aid deliveries. Despite repeated UN warnings, Israel dismisses famine claims as “Hamas lies.” Meanwhile, wealthy Muslim nations largely remain silent, focusing on ties with Israel while Gaza faces unprecedented humanitarian catastrophe. #GazaFamine #UNReport #StarvationCrisis #Palestine #GazaUnderSiege #HumanitarianCrisis #Blockade #MiddleEast #Israel #UNWarning #HungerCrisis #GlobalJustice #SaveGaza #PalestinianLives #UNAlert #GazaStarvation #MuslimNationsSilent #BreakingNews #WorldCrisis #IPCReport #HumanRights #FamineDeclared #Gaza ~HT.410~GR.124~ED.194~

‘Israel Is Committing
’ Houthis Denounce Israel’s ‘Expansion’ Plan|Warns Muslim Nations Of ‘Zionism’

Yemen’s Ansarullah leader Abdul-Malik al-Houthi has accused Israel of committing atrocities in Gaza and the occupied West Bank as part of a wider “Greater Israel” expansion plan. In a fiery televised speech from Sana’a, he claimed Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s vision is rooted in distorted religious ideology aimed at dominating the Muslim world. Al-Houthi cited the 1969 Al-Aqsa Mosque arson attack, warning that Israel seeks to destroy the holy site and replace it with a third Jewish temple. He also condemned Egypt’s gas deal with Israel and criticized Arab regimes for supporting the disarmament of Hamas and Hezbollah. Branding Zionism a threat to global society, the Ansarullah leader urged Muslim nations to resist what he described as the “crime of the century” against Palestinians. He reaffirmed Yemen’s military operations in solidarity with Gaza, vowing that ships violating the Red Sea embargo will be targeted. #Israel #Gaza #Houthi #GreaterIsrael #Netanyahu #Ansarullah #Palestine #WestBank #AlAqsa #Hezbollah #Hamas #MiddleEast #Zionism #USPolitics #GazaWar #MuslimWorld #RedSea #Egypt #SaudiArabia #Resistance ~ED.102~HT.408~
