“We strongly reject the decision of the Israeli Security Cabinet to launch an additional large -scale military operation in Gaza.” The opposition of the international community to the Plans of Benyamin Netanyahu to take control of Gaza City, thinning more than one million Palestinians, passed in one night from the convictions of individual chancelleries to a joint declaration of nine countries, including Italy. All convinced that extending the war in the strip “will aggravate the catastrophic humanitarian situation, will endanger the life of the hostages and increase the risk of a mass exodus of civilians”, with the “risk of violating international law”. The text reiterates the need for “a ceased the immediate and permanent fire, which also allows the supply of adequate humanitarian assistance” to Gaza where the situation is “catastrophic”. He intimates to Hamas to “release all the hostages”, invoking “demilitarization” and his “exclusion from any form of government in the strip, where the Palestinian authority must play a central role”. The declaration, initially signed by Italian Minister Antonio Tajani and his colleagues from Germany, the United Kingdom, Australia and New Zealand, has the purpose of sewing a common position, even in the face of a tolerant silence of the United States, without however reaching a tear of the western front. With the passing of the hours, Canada, Austria, Norway and France of Emmanuel Macron were also added, determined to recognize the state of Palestine in September to put Israel in front of the accomplished fact. Recognition considered premature from Rome and Berlin, who together pushed to get to the joint declaration. In the note, in fact, the common commitment “in favor of the implementation of a negotiated two states” is underlined. However, there is no lack of pressing on Giorgia Meloni, lastly that of CGIL, CISL and UIL, to “recognize the state of Palestine, alongside the state of Israel, with equal rights and responsibilities”. Russia and about twenty of Arab and Muslim countries also condemned the Israeli plan as a “dangerous escalation”. But Israel, he denounced the presidency of the ANP, ignores “the criticisms of the world powers”, effectively launching “a challenge and an unprecedented provocation to the international will to achieve peace”. According to Sources to Ynet, however, Netanyahu would have conceived the plan – at the moment without a start date – “to preserve his government and earn time”, leaving a margin to interrupt him at any time. “There are ways out if the negotiations will resume, and the negotiations are expected to resume,” the sources said. A resumption of the negotiations to which the mediatory countries are actually working, with the envoy of Donald Trump, Steve Witkoff, who returned to Europe-this time in Ibiza, according to Axios-to meet the Premier of Qatar Mohammed Bin Abdulhman Al-Thani and discuss a new plan to end the war in Gaza and free the hostages, thus extending the new one. offensive of the IDF. Sources close to Hamas have confirmed, always in Ynet, that intense interviews are underway, mediated by the United States, Egypt and Qatar, with the aim of preventing “a widespread Israeli control socket of the Gaza Strip”. The Palestinian faction would therefore have put a new proposal on the table that includes the end of the war, the complete Israeli retreat, the demilitarization of the Palestinian armed groups, the exile of the military leaders of Hamas and the establishment of a new civil authority that manages the strip together with a professional police force. “Hamas declares flexibility in the negotiations, but also prepares to resume the fighting if the proposal is rejected,” have warned the sources. Thousands of Israelis have come down to the Netanyahu plan again in the square, with the families of the hostages that accuse the government of having abandoned their loved ones and launch an appeal to the general strike: «Silence kills. We block Israel’s economy. It is the only way to stop all this ».
