Israel has pulled all of its ground troops out of southern Gaza for “tactical reasons”, the country’s army has said, raising questions about the future direction of the war as Hamas and Israeli delegations travel to Egypt for a new round of ceasefire talks.
Two brigades will stay in the northern half of the Gaza Strip and the new corridor that now bifurcates the Palestinian territory at Wadi Gaza, the Israel Defense Forces said on Sunday, in order to “preserve the IDF’s freedom of action and its ability to conduct precise intelligence based-operations”.
It is believed the drawdown is primarily to relieve reservists after nearly four months of intense fighting in the decimated southern city of Khan Younis, rather than any significant shift in strategy.
Biden said he demanded an immediate ceasefire which did not happen:
Israel is still in violation of the UN ceasefire resolution during Ramadan from two weeks ago that the US didn’t Veto
500 trucks a day is the minimum that needs to enter. 322 is not nearly enough
More crossings are not needed. Before the Genocide 500 trucks were able to enter through Rafah.
The ships that were going to deliver aid through the sea pier have turned around in fear of israel bombing them
More crossings are needed, because the infrastructure has been bombed to hell and can’t handle anywhere near the traffic if used to.
