Israel has entered a “new phase” in the war waged in Gaza against Hamas. Military spokesman Daniel Hagari told the New York Times. “A new, less intense phase of the fighting has begun”, characterized by less use of ground forces and air strikes, Hagari specified a few hours after the arrival in Israel of the US Secretary of State Antony Blinken.
Meanwhile, according to the Beirut media, Jawwad Tawil, military leader of Hezbollah and member of the Party of God, was killed in an air raid carried out by Israel in Kherbet Selem, a town 20 km to the north, the demarcation line with Israel.
The Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister, Antonio Tajani: “The G7 countries are working with the Israeli government to develop a rapid way out of the military phase, to return to diplomacy and politics”.
