- Leaders in the Israeli defence forces are said to be eager to start the invasion
Netanyahu has drawn the ire of Israel’s military chiefs as he has delayed the invasion of Gaza to eliminate Hamas, with western allies in the EU pushing for a ceasefire.
Israel’s Prime Minister clashed with leading figures in the country’s defence forces over his decision to delay the incursion, which his military chiefs are said to be eager to start, the Telegraph reports.
Meanwhile the European Union has pushed for a ceasefire in the war between Israel and terror group Hamas in order to deliver more humanitarian aid to Palestinian civilians in the besieged Gaza Strip.
Josep Borrell, the EU’s foreign policy chief, said he backed a call by UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres for a ‘humanitarian pause’, and added that it would give leaders more time to negotiate the release of the more than 200 hostages held captive by Hamas.
EU officials also drafted a statement in support of the proposal for an EU summit this Thursday and Friday.
After a meeting of EU foreign ministers in Luxembourg, Borrell said there was ‘basic consensus’ on a pause. But diplomats from three EU countries, speaking on condition of anonymity, said that was not their impression of the meeting.
The divergence raised the prospect of diplomatic wrangling in the coming days to agree a text acceptable to all the bloc’s 27 national leaders, to be signed off at the summit.
U.S. Defense Department Shows Iranian-Backed Military Men Are Ready to Increase Their Attacks Against U.S. Troops in the Middle East
The US has intelligence that Iranian-backed militia groups are planning to ramp up attacks against US forces in the Middle East, as Iran seeks to capitalize on the backlash in the region to US support for Israel, according to multiple US officials.
The militia groups have already launched multiple drone attacks on US forces in Iraq and Syria.
But the US now has specific intelligence that those same groups could escalate even further as the war between Israel and Hamas continues.
There are “red lights flashing everywhere,” a US official in the region told CNN.
Officials said that at this point, Iran appears to be encouraging the groups rather than explicitly directing them. One official said Iran is providing guidance to the militia groups that they will not be punished – by not getting resupplied with weaponry, for example – if they continue to attack US or Israeli targets.
On Monday, National Security Council spokesperson John Kirby said there is “a very direct connection between these groups” and the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps, and he said the US is “deeply concerned about the potential of any significant escalation of these attacks in the days ahead.”
A senior defense official echoed that concern on Monday.
“We see a prospect for much more significant escalation against US forces and personnel in the near term,” the official said. “And let’s be clear about it. The road leads back to Iran. Iran funds, arms, equips and trains militias and proxy forces all across the region. … We are preparing for this escalation, both in terms of defending our forces and being prepared to respond decisively.”
